I've heard interpreters state that one of the unlisted attributes of goaltending is that the ball is outside the cylinder (along with try or tap, downward flight, above the basket ring level, and possibility of entering the basket).
Offensive basket interference or offensive goaltending: Signal # 13: No score.
Defensive basket interference or defensive goaltending: Signal # 14: Goal counts.
