ART. 1
Basket interference occurs when a player:
Touches the ball or any part of the basket (including the net) while the ball is on or within either basket.
I don't think it was a violation in the OP because it had not "passed through" the rim. And I wouldn't call BI or GT for my above situation either.I don't think this is the purpose of the rule although it definitely fits the definition of BI.

I would.
