player out of bounds and hit by ball
If a player A is standing out of bounds, and player B hits player A with the ball and the ball then goes out of bounds,
is the last player to touch the ball before it goes out of bounds player A or player B? Who gets possession of the ball? |

Quote:
The clause about the last player to touch the ball before it goes out of bounds is not for this case. It is for the case where the ball is last touched by an inbounds player before the ball goes out of bounds by hitting the floor/wall/etc., not another player who is out of bounds.

7-2-2: If the ball is out of bounds because of touching or being touched by a player who is on or outside a boundary line, such player causes it to go out.

I screwed this up once. I logically deduced that if a player was OOB and the ball hit them it was the same as the ball hitting the floor OOB, and thought that I need to refer back to whoever touched it last in bounds. Thankfully another official quickly set me straight.
