Should have passed on it. Unless the player has, in the official's judgment, hit or slapped the backboard on purpose (tough decision to go with if he clearly tried to block the shot), it's bad luck that the supports are so flimsy but it should not be a "T" in my view. The "result" of hitting the backboard is irrelevant in that situation--it's the act itself that has to be judged for its intent and how it transpired.
