Entry Throw is an entry throw occurs when a player tosses a ball to a teammate who is re-entering play. This action allows the returning player to arm themselves immediately without searching for a ball on the ground. Effective entry throws maintain team pressure by ensuring every active player has defensive or offensive tools. Teammates must coordinate the timing of the toss to prevent the ball from hitting the floor. A teammate tosses a ball to the player running back onto the court after a successful catch. Quick entry throws help teams capitalize on the momentum gained from bringing an eliminated player back.
