I understand that 9.5.1 is not exactly the play under consideration.

The legality of the play depends on the
type of control that is terminated in the air. 9.5.1 says that if
team control ends, it's legal to return to the floor. If team control doesn't end, it's a travel- or a held ball if a defender stopped the player from releasing the ball.
Simple as that.
