Almost handled correctly.
The clock clearly started early. The official didn't blow the whistle until the rebounder had the ball. Had he blown the whistle before that, they would have had a dead ball with no one in control... and that, by strict application of the rules, would have led to an AP throw in for EC, unjustly.
It is not likely that it mattered but the only thing they did wrong was the throwin spot. The rebounder was outside of the diagonal at the time he controlled the ball and the whistle blew. The spot should have been on the sideline...that extra distance can matter, get it right too.
