&
7-6-2 . . .The throw-in begins when the ball is at the disposal of a player of the team entitled to the throw-in. The thrower shall release the ball on a pass directly into the court, except as in 7-5-7, within five seconds after the throw-in begins. …
And a pass is defined as:
4-31
A pass is movement of the ball caused by a player who throws, bats or rolls the ball to another player.

Would you call this a violation or just reset and initiate a proper throw in?
