and when dribbling from backcourt to frontcourt. Once the dribbler does establish frontcourt status, the 3 point rule is as irrelevant as a dirty shirt, as meaningless as yesterday's newspaper. Once frontcourt status is attained, ANY single touch in the backcourt, either one foot, the other foot, or the ball, is a violation. Again, on a dribble.

Yes, and touching any part of the division line is considered to be the backcourt... contrary to what some summer coaches believe, a player doesn't have to cross the line to be IN the backcourt.

But he does have to cross the line to be in the front court.
