the shooter came down and ran into another player who is not part of the play and the contact does not effect the play, if the player contacted is OOB. it did not prevent him from doing anything - s/he can not rebound the ball from OOB, and if the basket goes it is dead ball, so you are going to make a foul call - dead ball contact OOB - in this situation?

Let's assume it's contact that is a foul if it happens anywhere else on the court. Let's assume that the contact knocked the player to the floor, preventing him/her from returning to the inbounds area. Let's assume the basket is missed.
It certainly does affect play. On what basis do you have incidental contact?
