I'd say count the basket, if you determine the shooting motion has started. You can have two hands on the ball when starting the shooting motion for a jump shot. If fouled during a jump shot...with two hands on the ball...you would count the basket. I look at it the same for a lay up. Of course you can also have two hands on the ball and be holding or passing it. So, it depends on whether or not you deemed the shooting motion began.

For a right handed lay up isn't the right foot the pivot? I'm trying to visualize this...and don't you pick up the ball with the right foot on the floor...step and put your left down...lift your right / pivot foot...and finish the lay up?
