Over and Back

[SWMOzebra]

9.9.1SitE is as close as I can find.

The throw-in ends when the ball is legally touched in bounds, so the touch by A-2 completes the throw-in. Where was A-2 on the court when he touched the ball? If he was in the front court, then the ball has front court status and was last touched by someone from team A ... so A-2 first touching the ball in the backcourt is a violation.

If A-2 had backcourt status (either standing in the backcourt or in the air jumping from the backcourt), then the ball has not yet obtained front court status and anyone from team A may retrieve it in the backcourt.

Partially true... the touching of a throw-in pass ends the throw-in, but a mere touch does not equal player/team control.

That's three of the four requirements. What about the fourth? (Team Control)

[BillyMac]

During a throwin, even under a team’s own basket, if the throwin is deflected, tipped, or batted by an offensive player in the frontcourt to an offensive player in the backcourt; or after a missed field goal attempt or a missed foul shot attempt, if the ball is deflected, tipped, or batted by an offensive player in the frontcourt to an offensive player in the backcourt; these are not a backcourt violations. In both cases team control, a player holding or dribbling the ball, has not yet been established.

During a throwin, or jump ball, any player; or a defensive player, in making a steal; may legally jump from his or her frontcourt, secure control of the ball with both feet off the floor, and return to the floor with one or both feet in the backcourt. The player may make a normal landing and it makes no difference whether the first foot down is in the frontcourt or the backcourt. These three situations are not backcourt violations.

It doesn't matter where A-2 was. There was no team control.
