				I suspect this is a Free Throw (15 foot line)
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			
			If it is a FT attempt, the ball is blown dead as a shooter violation (Failed to make contact with the rim). 
 
If it is a live ball situation, as Mregor stated, If it is viewed as a shot attempt it is legal, because player control is relinquished on the shot attempt.  
 
If the official deems it to be a self pass, then it is a violation.
