Slight correction to the previous posts. The exception applies to throwins, jump balls, and defensive players.

This is not a throwin nor a jump ball, so the only possibility is a defensive player. It's obvious in this case that the shooter's team doesn't qualify for this, but neither does the other team since there is no team control once the shot was released.

They added a case play a couple of years ago showing that those three situations are the only times the rules committee wants the exception to apply. Personally, I'd like to see the exception applied to any situation in which team control is initially gained by an airborne player with FC status, but it's not my rule book; I just follow it.
