No - the only requirement is to touch rim at some point in the FT. The difference with backboard comes from the fact that players on the lane can move when the ball hits the backboard or rim, but the shooter and outside players must wait for the ball to hit the rim. [/B]

I believe the restrictions end for all players when the ball hits either the backboard or the rim, 9-1-9 Note.
