Hard to beleive that this is not a fake.
It's not a fake.

As somebody else pointed out, the players along the lane, can't go in till the ball hits the rim or backboard, so even if she meant to fake, nobody's going to fall for it. She was practicing, not faking.

However, could we call the "practice" shot a FT attempt. A try begins with the habitual motion of the shooter. So it could be argued that in releasing the ball after the habitual motion, she actually took her FT. It was clearly unsuccessful. So she only has one shot left.
