Unless FIBA rules are different on this point, and it's very possible that they are, RookieDude and firedoc are not correct. In NF, NCAA, and NBA rules if two officials signal opposite fouls, one offensive and one defensive, then you penalize both and go to the arrow (or jump ball in NBA). In NCAA, if the offensive team retains possession as a result of the AP, then there is no reset of the shot clock. In the NBA, if the offensive team wins the jump ball, then the shot clock remains where it is or is reset to 14, whichever is greater.
The key here is whether both officials signaled. Once the conflicting signals are given, both fouls must be assessed.
If there is a specific FIBA rule that addresses this, then you may safely ignore this entire post, b/c I have no idea what FIBA rules are. Where the heck is Duane?!?!?!
