After a score, does A-2 have the right to kick the ball during a throw-in by B-1?

In the context of basketball rules, when a score occurs, the ball automatically becomes the possession of the team that did not score, in this case, Team B. During the subsequent throw-in by Team B, players from Team A (including A-2) are required to respect the established throw-in procedure.

Kicking the ball during the throw-in by B-1 isn't allowed because the primary objective of the throw-in is to ensure a clear opportunity for Team B to gain possession of the ball. Any actions that disrupt this process, such as kicking the ball, can lead to a turnover. When A-2 kicks the ball during the throw-in, it is considered a violation of the rules governing throw-ins. Thus, possession would be awarded to Team B for the ongoing play, reinforcing the importance of maintaining fair play during such situations.

As a result, the correct conclusion is that the action taken by A-2 leads to a turnover, allowing Team B to continue its play without interference.
