Trying to determine if a shot which has been blocked or misdirected by one defender can be goal tended by another defender.

ie. I am driving the lane and on the way up one defender tips or deflects my layup attempt, however, it still has a chance of going in. On it's way down toward the rim, another player pulls it out of the air/goaltends it. Is he allowed to do that?

If defender 1 tipped/blocked/deflected my shot and it still went in, I would still get credited for the shot, so it would stand to reason to me that if defender 2 pulls that ball out of there, it should still be deemed a goaltend.

Does anyone know the answer? If so, is this documented anywhere?

Thanks,
Jason
