A few questions
I was curious about a few things.
1) On an OOB throw in if the in-bounder steps onto the court before releasing the ball is this a violation or does the in-bounder have to step completely over the line? 2) Can a time-out be requested by a player in the air falling out of bounds or into the backcourt? 3) My understanding: A player can pivot after a jump if they gathered the ball mid-air but if the player gathered the ball prior to jumping they may not use a pivot after the completion of the jump stop? 4) Traveling related again: How far does a player actually have to roll over with possession of the ball to be considered a travel. I've seen players in college roll over and call a timeout with possession. 5) Does the closely guarded count continue if ANY defender is within 6 ft of the offensive player with the ball. -Meaning if defender A is closely guarding offensive player A while the closely guarded count is at 3 seconds and then defender B switches over to offensive player A while defender A is no longer closely guarding the offensive player. |
1. I'm not sure what your question is, but if the thrower touches any inbounds portion of the court while in possession of the ball, it's a violation.
2. Yes (high school). 3. Correct. 4. Most consider 90 degrees to be traveling, but it's up for interpretation. If he's turning to request timeout, he's likely to get the timeout. 5. In high school, as long as the defense has someone within six feet, the count continues. |

So if on an inbounds play the inbounder steps on the line what do you have? You can't have it both ways and have the line be both inbounds AND out of bounds. It's one or the other. |

A1 dives for a loose ball and slides after gaining control. A1 is in a position either on his/her back or stomach. What can A1 do without *violating? RULING: A1 may pass, shoot, start a dribble or call a time-out. Once A1 has the ball and is no longer sliding, he/she may not roll over. If flat on his/her back, A1 may sit up without violating. Any attempt to get to the feet is *traveling unless A1 is dribbling. It is also traveling if A1 puts the ball on the floor, then rises and is first to touch the ball. ======================= NCAA A.R. 135. Is it traveling when a player: (3) Gains control of the ball while sliding on the playing court and then, because of momentum, rolls or slides, after which the player passes or starts a dribble before getting to his or her feet? RULING: (3) No. The player may pass, shoot, start a dribble or call a timeout. Once the player has the ball and is no longer sliding, he or she may not roll over. When flat on his or her back, the player may sit up without violating. When the player puts the ball on the floor, then rises and is the first to touch the ball, it also is traveling. When a player rises to his or her feet while holding the ball and moves the pivot foot, it is traveling. When a player falls to one knee while holding the ball, it is traveling if the pivot foot moves. |

All movements as part of the momentum are legal. Only once momentum has ceased does rolling over become a travel. |
