Well the ball did not remain in the basket and immediately popped out. So the basket cannot count just for that reason alone. Now if the ball hit his head and popped out, then that would be for other reasons. It would be BI if that is the case, but that is hard to tell by the video and how far away the camera angle is for this play.
