Oh good catch, sir! I never noticed that before.

So in that case, I suppose one outcome could have been a T on the defender in question. If so, since a try was in flight, the ball does not become dead until the try ends (score it if it falls). Also (and this didn't happen in this case but it's worth noting) if the ball hadn't been released but the player was in the act of shooting, the foul was on the defense, so the shooter gets continuous motion.

In NFHS, two shots to any player or sub, then ball at division line to the offended team. It's not BI, but the result would probably appease the enraged coach!

In NCAAM, which was the case here, it's 10-4-1f: "Grasping either basket in an excessive, emphatic manner during the officials’ jurisdiction when the player is not, in the judgment of an official, trying to prevent an obvious injury to self or others." That's a Class B technical, so would not count toward the team foul count nor the player's five. Two shots and then POI. If the initial basket fell, the POI would be a throw in for B anywhere along the end line. If not, since a try was in flight (no team control), I think you have to go to the possession arrow.

NCAAW is similar (10-3-3); it's a player technical. 2 shots, POI, but in this case the foul does count toward the team foul total and the foul does count toward the player's five toward disqualification.

(By the way, all this is hypothetical. In the video I've requested, I still don't believe the basket was grasped in an "excessive, emphatic manner.")
