The only time the ball is inbounded on the baseline is if the ball goes directly out of bounds on the baseline (hits OOB on the baseline), the ball hits the base of the basket, beginning of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarters, after a goaltending violation, or if a throw-in originates on the baseline, and the throw-in team commits a throw-in violation...the defense would get their throw-in at the original spot.

In this case, since the ball went directly over the top of the backboard, it would be at the FT-line extended.
