This sitch came up when I was talking with some reffing buddies of mine in between rec league games on Saturday. One of them had this happen to him in a game earlier this year.
He waved the basket off and called a back court violation. When I asked him why he did that -- since team control ends on a try for goal and thus you can't have a backcourt violation -- he backtracked and said, in his opinion, the player wasn't really attempting a shot, just heaving the ball in the general direction of the goal.
I just said okay.
