Backcourt violation??

If it is deemed a deliberate tap attempt to the backcourt, can you have a violation then?

Remember the definition of player control: holding or dribbling a live ball inbounds. Did the rebounder hold the ball before batting it to the backcourt? Probably not. Would you have granted a TO if he'd requested one? Probably not. So no player control; so no team control; so no backcourt violation.
