Can we juggle the ball while in play?

Also can i do something similar when going for the basket by switching shooting hands by throwing the ball from my left hand to my right before shooting instead of the normal hand switch where the ball is always in contact with one of the hands?

Pretty sure the first one is right from the case book.

The second happens all the time, so that answer should be obvious.

Curious -- why are you asking all these questions? are you an official? a player? a coach? ...

Always listen to bob.

A1 tosses the ball from one hand to the other while keeping his/her pivot foot in contact with the floor. RULING: Legal.

I'm not sure it's obvious -- most of the "test prep" questions we get are actual questions.

I think it's more likely that it deals with disagreements that have come up in a "call your own" rec-type game.
