BC/FC pain again
 
Can the fc/bc status of the ball change when touched by a defensive player?
ex. - A1 dribbling in the backcourt near the division line. B1, with FC status, touches the ball. Did the ball's status change to FC?

Remember all 3 points have to be across. Ball, right foot, left foot. In your situation the offensive player will still have backcourt status.

The location of a ball is the location where it was last touched by a player or the court. B's touching ends the dribble, so the "three points rule" doesn't apply.

That should help you answer the question.
