The second non-dunking hand on the rim makes this an interesting play to discuss.

NFHS 4-6-1: Basket interference occurs when a player: Touches the ball or any part of the basket (including the net) while the ball is on or within either basket. Exception: In Art. 1 … if a player has his/her hand legally in contact with the ball, it is not a violation if such contact with the ball continues after it enters the imaginary cylinder or if in such action, the player touches the basket. Dunking or stuffing is legal and is not basket interference (“The Bill Russell Rule”).
... his left hand wasn't in contact with the ball ...

Basket interference is the lesser penalty - no basket.
Technical foul is more severe - no basket, two free throws by offended team's best free throw shooter, and an additional offending team foul.
