Sorry
What I typed was not intended as a quote...
Here is the quote
5.2.1 Situation C:
A1 throws the ball from behind the three-point line. The ball is legally touched by: ...(d) A2 who is in the two-point area. The ball continues in flight and goes through A's basket. Ruling: ...In (d), score two points since the legal touch by a teammate occurred in the two-point area.
For example (mine) A1 is attempting the alley-oop or just a pass from the three-point area. A2 under or near the basket attempts to catch/dunk the ball but fails to control the pass having only touched (and likely deflected) the pass... score two.
If the official can say A2 didn't touch the throw, score 3. If A2 touched it and was within the two-point area, score 2.
Sorry for the confusion Cameron.
