mick: Thanks.

Rule 9-2-2: Throw In Provisions: The ball shall be passed by the thrower directly into the court from out-of-bounds so it touches or is touched by another player (inbounds or out of bounds) on the court before going out of bounds untouched.

Rule 7-2-1: Causing The Ball To Go Out Of Bounds - Individual Player: The ball is caused to go out of bounds by the last player in bounds to touch it or be touched by it, unless the ball touches a player who is out of bounds prior to touching something out of bounds other than a player.

Rule 7-2-2: Causing The Ball To Go Out Of Bounds - Individual Player: If the ball is out of bounds because of touching or being touched by a player who is on or outside a boundary line, such player causes it to go out.

Rule 7-5-2 (a): Throw In, Resuming Play: Designated out-of-bounds spot throw-in nearest the violation: After any violation, as in 9-2 through 10 and 9-13, the official shall place the ball at the disposal of an opponent of the player who committed the violation for a throw-in from the designated out-of-bounds spot nearest the violation.

I can't find any casebook citations, even for a different situation that we see all the time, a throwin going out of bounds untouched. Are there any casebook citations?
