Can a player touch the ball and step out of bounds and come back in a gain possession of the ball?
A player must reestablish position inbounds before touching the ball if that player has gone out of bounds. Position would be reestablished when the player that had gone out of bounds get both feet back inbounds. Once both feet are back inbounds, then the player may touch the ball.
**Not sure if there is any differences between HS, College or NBA. According to NBA rules: A player in control of a dribble who steps on or outside a boundary line, even though not touching the ball while on or outside that boundary line, shall not be allowed to return inbounds and continue his dribble. He may not even be the first player to touch the ball after he has re-established a position inbounds.

you cant dribble the ball out of bounds but a player can step out of bounds and the ref wont call anything ( i dnt know why you would want to step out though because if a teammate passes it to you the other team gets the ball)
yes as long as he doesnt touch the ball when hes out of bounds
yes they can , anytime they want too, however with the ball it is called out of bounds
Only if another player touches the ball first or the original player establishes position in bounds by having both feet on the court.
Yes of course they can as long as they are'nt on the bench or were the person that went out of bounds with the ball in the first place!
