Legal play, player with the ball does not establish frontcourt status before pass to backcourt Legal play, player’s momentum carries him into backcourt, not a violation Legal play, ball is legally tapped into backcourt
“This is an example of a legal play that would not be considered a backcourt violation. The defensive player, Rajon Rondo, makes the steal in his new frontcourt, but his momentum carries him backward one step into his backcourt, he then moves forward into his frontcourt legally. Again, this is a legal play and not a violation.”
