Held Ball ...

All three officials passed on the held ball, probably because the lead's whistle sounded for the holding foul before the shooter returned to the floor.
If no foul had been called, I'm pretty sure one, possibly two, maybe three, officials would have whistled for a held ball.
The problem is that, by rule, there is no requirement for this airborne player to return to the floor for a held ball to be called.
4-25-2: A held ball occurs when: An opponent places his/her hand(s) on the ball and prevents an airborne player from throwing the ball or releasing it on a try.
