A2 grabs the ring and it comes down; in my view, he did it to stabilize himself (prevent injury) - as soon as he was stable, he let go of the ring. The ball came down through the basket. At no time was he touching the ring while the ball was touching the ring or in the basket.

And the verdict is . . .
BI .... He shouldn't have missed the dunk.
Tough luck for the showboater.
