ranjo,
Do you have the Simplified & Illustrated book? My most recent copy is from 2005-06. Your play is depicted on page 27. The shooter is crashing into the back of a defender who is facing the basket and not the player with the ball. Here is the caption:
4-19-6 Number 5 has legal position on the court before No. 4 becomes airborne. The foul is on No. 4, the goal does not count if it is made because it is a player-control foul. A player-control foul causes the ball to become dead immediately. Number 4 is an airborne shooter after releasing the ball on a try until he returns to the floor.
