Since the shooter hasn't received the ball yet, there's no infraction that I can see. Additionally, I don't think it's unsportsmanlike to encourage the crowd to cheer, even at such a critical point in the game.

However, when I step in to administer the FTs, I might say "Ladies, that might be construed as disconcerting the shooter." And leave it at that. JMO
