6-7 EXCEPTION: The ball does not become dead until the try or tap ends, or until the airborne shooter returns to the floor, when: Article 5 (official's whistle is blown) occurs while a try or tap for a field goal is in flight.

The ball isn't dead, count the basket, grant the timeout, run the endline after the timeout.

By rule it's the whistle that makes the ball dead, not the act of granting.

The rare exception to Basketball Rule Fundamental 16, the official’s whistle seldom causes the ball to become dead (it is already dead).
And if the shot is missed you are going to the AP arrow, correct?
