Same goes for this situation: If you are in the backcourt and jumping to the frontcourt and you jump and hit/catch the ball while you are in the air, you are not in the frontcourt until you land in the frontcourt.

As always - "you are where you are, until you get where you're going"

Ah, that's a good comparison. Thanks!
