One mistake I think many teams make is to have a designated inbounder after a made basket. What this often does is to allow the defense to set up. The player who catches the ball after a made shot immediately step out of bounds before the defense can set up. Ideally the ball should be caught before it hits the floor. Inbounder needs to remember that she can run the baseline and should avoid inbounding from behind the backboard.
At the offensive end I believe an important point in inbounder selection is: Do not take your best shooter off the court.If your tallest player has the smarts and the ability she should be the inbounder.
