Rule 2-5. Officials Use of Replay/Television Equipment

Art. 1. Officials may use official courtside replay equipment, videotape or television monitoring that is located on a designated courtside table (i.e., within approximately 3 to 12 feet of the playing court), when such equipment is available only in situations as follows:

h. A determination, based on the judgment of the official, that the shot-clock operator failed to properly start, stop, set or reset the shot clock. The mistake shall be corrected in the shot-clock period in which it occurred.

Since they were checking whether the ball hit the ring or not (i.e. whether the shot-clock operator had failed to reset), this is a reviewable play. They could not use the monitor at this point to check whether the player had released the ball before the shot-clock horn sounded. That has to be an end-of-half situation. (See 2-5.2b and e, and 2-5.3.)
