According to FIBA Rules no infraction occurred. I'm curious to see how American rules handle this.

31.2.4 Interference occurs during a shot for a field goal when:
• A player touches the basket [...] while the ball is in contact with the ring. [...]
• An offensive player causes the backboard or the ring to vibrate in such a way that, in the judgement of the official, the ball has been caused to enter the basket.

The 'touching' was so light that neither C nor T saw it, I can assume it didn't affect the shot.

38.3.1 A technical foul is a player non-contact foul of a behavioural nature including [...]
• Hanging on the ring in such a way that the weight of the player is supported by the ring, unless a player grasps the ring momentarily following a dunk shot [...].

So no technical either.
