Backcourt or not?

[Camron Rust]

Great no-call!

As Ron said, if any part of the player is touching the backcourt, they are still in the backcourt.

I will add that I believe (if I am reading their rule correctly) that the NBA does rule differently on this. Once the ball is past the division line they may not pass to a teammate in the backcourt. There rules says that the ball not in player control is in the frontcourt if it has passed the line. As soon as the ball is release and player control ends, the ball is in the frontcourt.
