Below The Ring Level ...
Maybe the important factor is if the ball is below (or above) the ring level when it touches (deflects off of) another player (offensive or defensive)?
4.41.4 - Situation B: A1’s three-point try is short and below ring level when it hits the shoulder of: (a) A2; or (b) B1 and rebounds to the backboard and through the basket. Ruling: The three-point try ended when it was obviously short and below the ring. However, since a live ball went through the basket, two points are scored in both (a) and (b). (5-1)
In 4.41.4 Situation B the ball is on the way down (try is short). In my silly scenario, the ball is on the way up.
Screener A2's head was definitely below the ring.
Grasping at straws here, straws to support any answer, either way.
