AP Throw In Spot
Before A1 releases the ball on a Free Throw, B1 enters the lane from a marked lane space. After B1 enters the lane and before the ball is released for a try A2 crosses the 3-point line (A) behind shooter A1 and directly above the key area, or (B) to either side of the key area. Please apply the rule and consider where the subsequent throw in takes place.

The violation by each team is enforced. No point can be scored. Go to the arrow for the throw-in (I'm assuming there's no FT to follow).
In (B), the "spot closest to the violation" could be either the end-line or the side-line, depending on which violation you choose. As a practical matter, I'm probably choosing the endline. |
I remember an interpretation sometime back wherein the spot of a the AP throwin for a double violation (maybe it was a double foul) was determined by the location of the violation of that team that did not have the arrow.
In (A), it wouldn't matter, however, since that violation would put A2 in the semi-circle and this the spot for both violations would be on the endline. In (B), it would matter. If the arrow were pointing to A, it would be an endline throwin since B's violation was in the lane. If the arrow were pointing to B, it would be along the sideline nearest where A2 violated. |

Another might be that the initial violation is a delayed dead ball, so it's really the second that causes the AP arrow, so inbound at the spot of the second. |
Seems to me the best option is to treat it like POI. Where was the ball?

Looks like the "heavy hitters" are sort of in the "not sure" mode also. I do like Cameron's possible interp though. |
