Im a little unsure as to what the issue is here. I'm a beginning referee new to the "art" but my interpretation is as follows. If the original shot attempt was a legitimate attempt at a field goal everything sounds fine to me. It sounds like an air ball was shot and the player was aggressively following up on the missed scoring opportunity. He gave up control on the original shot but sounds like he regained it , if only for a second, to rebound it and redirect the shot toward the hoop. The shot clock would have stopped on the original shot if the attempt was made in time but , in theory, briefly could have been restarted and stopped again depending on the alertness and dependability of the minor officials. Practically speaking there would be negligible effect due to the extremely "limited" time of possession.
