Intentional foul on throw in

[Camron Rust]

As Nevada's quote indicates, you call intentional if the fouled player is not involved in the play. A player is involved in the play if they are setting a screen, attempting to receive the pass, etc. An example of a player not in the play is one 50' down the court just waiting for the guards to inbound the ball and bring it down court. (Some have contended that the parenthetical expression is giving examples of player NOT involved in the play but they are simply comprehension challenged...it is a list of actions deemed to be part of the play).

The defender may not break the imaginary plane during a throwin. If the defender breaks the imaginary plane during a throwin, the defender’s team will receive a team warning, or if the team has already been warned for one of the four delay situations, this action would result in a team technical foul. If the defender contacts the ball after breaking the imaginary plane, it is a player technical foul and a team warning will be recorded. If the defender fouls the inbounding player after breaking the imaginary plane, it is an intentional personal foul, and a team warning will be recorded.
