The refs ruled a shot clock violation.
My point of view is that you will often see a foul called when a player tips a ball towards the basket and contact occurs. If they consider that a shooting foul, then it is considered an attempt. Bottom line in this situation: the refs had to judge whether the tip was an attempt or not, they decided it was not. It could have gone either way.
