Since someone mentioned the airborne shooter, I want to be sure I understand when to kill a shot.
I understand that an airborne shooter who fouls an opponent has committed a player control foul (I think the common example is A1 who jumps, releases the ball and then crashes into B1 on the way back to the floor, with B1 having had legal guarding position); and the shot is not counted if it goes in.
Is there any difference in the way the situation is handled if the foul committed by A1 occurs after she returns to the floor? For instance, upon returning to the floor after releasing a shot, A1 grabs B1 jersey when she sees B1 heading toward the basket to position herself for the rebound. Since A1 was no longer an airborne shooter when the foul was committed, would we count the basket if it goes in, report the foul against A1, and if Team B is in the bonus they would shoot 1 or 2? If the ball doesn't go in then report the foul against A1 and Team B gets a throw in and can run the baseline?
