There really is no rule on this. The only time you can really touch a player is when they are backing you down in the post (in which you can put one hand or arm on them) or when they have their pivot foot on the ground.
Other than that, most touching of other players is considered a foul.
No, a player cannot be called for offsides in basketball. The term "offsides" is not used in basketball rules. If a player steps out of bounds while in possession of the ball, it is called a "out of bounds" violation, and the ball is turned over to the opposing team.
Yollie touch
The possession arrow changes in basketball when a jump ball situation occurs and the possession is awarded to the team that did not have the previous possession arrow.
In basketball, possession refers to which team has control of the ball and the opportunity to score.
When a player is trying to tap the ball out of the other player's possession. You can do it as long as you only hit ball, you can't touch the other player. Sometime you can get away with it though.
