Yup, that's right. You'd count the basket and issue a T.

But this is very unlikely to happen in a HS or college game, b/c at the end of the game, the teams are shooting in front of their own benches. So the opposing player would have to come from the backcourt, and hopefully, you'd see it and blow the whistle before he got the shooter.
