Answer 1- During a throw-in, there is no team control. Consequently, a pass
thrown into the back court from out of bounds is not a violation.
When the ball is thrown into the back court, a team has 10 seconds to advance
the ball over the division line. When the ball is thrown into the front court
and there is team control, the division line comes into play.

Answer 2. No. A player is permitted to be the first to secure control of the
ball after a throw-in while both feet are off the playing court and may land
with one or both feet in the back court.

Answer 3. No There was never team control in the front court. A ball that is
in contact with a player or with the playing court, shall be in the back
court when either the player or the ball is touching the back court.
