If in one motion, a player jumps, uses both hands for an offensive rebound and shoots/tips the ball to the basket, is that considered to be a possession by that player? Situation came up where the player put up an air ball and caught the ball to shoot again.
I'm sure that you can tip the ball with one hand repetively as you attempt to shoot the ball.
Whenever a try is attempted, team and player possession ends, and any player may grab the ball and dribble, shoot, pass or just stand there.

"Section 40 Shooting, Try, Tap : Art.1
The Act of shooting begins simultaneously with the start of the try or tap and ends when the ball is clearly in flight, and includes the airborne shooter."
