NFHS 4-6-2: Basket interference occurs when a *player* (offense or defense)...Touches the ball while any part of the ball is within the imaginary cylinder which has the basket ring as its lower base.
Case Book 9.11.2 SITUATION C applies, but since this is offensive basket interference, no points may be scored:
"Since it is a violation for thrower A1 to throw the ball directly into the basket from out of bounds, what happens if B1 touches the throw-in pass while the ball is in the cylinder above A’s basket?
B1 is charged with basket interference and a two-point goal is scored. Team B is awarded the ball for a throw-in anywhere along the end lines as after a scored goal except the official shall place the ball at the disposal of a player of Team B for a throw-in from any point outside the end line. (4-6)"
