5 seconds
A player has 5 seconds to get the ball in bounds.
It means that the ball out of bounds/ out of play/ not on the court.
Throw in
You have 5 seconds to throw the ball in but you can also run up and down the baseline as long as you stay out of bounds.
The ball has gone "in touch" and the restart is a throw-in.
if the ball goes out of bounds then the team that threw it out of bounds doesnt get it
At the point where the ball went out of bounds.
When the ball makes contact with anything that is out of bounds (this includes touching the out of bounds line) it is considered 'out of bounds'. If the ball goes out of bounds in the air and is pulled back, it is not considered out of bounds.
in order for a ball in basketball to be considered to be out of bounds the ball MUST touch/hit the ground out bounds ... if the ball does not touch/hit out of bounds the ball is still live a play can go out of bounds to throw/pass the ball back in bounds so long as the player that is going for the ball bounds feet are in the air when he makes contact with the ball ...
