Out of Bounds/Inbounds Situation

[Nevadaref]

Does this answer your question?

7.2.2 SITUATION: A throw-in by A1 (a) strikes B1 who is inbounds and rebounds in flight directly from B1 and then strikes A1 who is still out of bounds; (b) is batted by B1, who is inbounds and the ball is next touched by A1 who is still out of bounds. RULING: A1 caused the ball to go out of bounds and it is awarded to Team B at that spot for a throw-in for both (a) and (b).

Thanks for the rules reference. One of the opposing coaches said something about the inbounder needing a chance to get back inbounds, and at the time it got me thinking. I wonder if thats an NBA rule or just one of those urban-myth type things like not being able to touch a saved ball after going out of bounds until someone else touches it first...

I think it's one of those wishful thinking things... like... "darn it, they ought to give the guy a chance..."
