I actually had the OP scenario happen in a MS boys game this year. As the ball is bouncing to the shooter, defensive coach requests a TO. T hits his whistle as the shooter catches it, I get the ball ball back, and T reports the TO.
Shooter's coach is a highly rated local official, and he didn't say a word.
The really neat thing is, I did it right, and I still enjoyed working that game.
