No violation.

After the ball is placed at the disposal of a free thrower:
a. He/she shall throw within 10 seconds to cause the ball to enter the basket
or touch the ring before the free throw ends.

Each basket shall consist of a single metal ring, 18 inches in inside
diameter, its flange and braces, and a white-cord 12-mesh net, 15 to 18 inches in
length, suspended from beneath the ring.
ART. 2 Each ring shall not be more than 5/8 inch in diameter, with the
possible addition of small-gauge loops on the bottom edge for attaching a 12-
mesh net. The ring and its attaching flange and braces shall be bright orange in
color.
