The key to this is how we interpret the word "prevents."
An opponent.......... prevents an airborne player from releasing the ball.
Can it be considered that the opponent prevented the release, if the offensive player is able to pull the ball back from the contact, and subsequently release it before committing a violation?
I say yes.
