Apples and kumquats. If you look at 5-9-4, it is regarding throw-ins only. Your situation is on a FT.
I just hope I never have to make that call until they change the wording.

5-9-3:If a free throw is not successful and the ball is to remain live,
the clock shall be started when the ball touches or is touched by a player on the court.
5-9-4: If play is resumed by a throw-in,
the clock shall be started when the ball touches, or is touched by, a player on the court after it is released by the thrower.
What is the difference?
