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.
