Not watching but...
The question to be asked is was there a shot attempt?
If the answer is yes, then there is no team control when the shot is attempted. The rule allows any person to gain control of ball while in the air and then land in the back court.
If the anser is no, then there should be a whistle.
My guess is the referee deemed that there was an attempt for a shot.
