Yes, but...

When I watched it again (many times on TiVo), his right foot was on the center of an "A" in Oklahoma when he was handed the ball. He shuffled his feet (maybe 3-4 steps, maybe not). When the whistle was blown, his left foot had not moved past where his right foot was when he was handed the ball (at the center of the same "A"). There is no such thing as 'traveling' during a spot throw-in. At least one foot was still inside the 3-foot box that he has for a throw-in.

The question that I still have is, do both feet have to be inside of this 3-foot area? Or, is one sufficient, as it is according to NFHS rules?
