Here in California, we utilize a 25-second shot clock (I'm not sure what a 24-second violation is - NBA? I don't know.) The shot clock rules we use are taken from the NCAA. You could find them on the NCAA.org website. The answer to your question in games here is that the try only need be released before the 25-second shot clock expires that either a) hits the rim or b) is successful. Legal goal. No violation. Ignore the horn.
