You're wiping it and calling it a violation because you can't have a try at the wrong basket?
No, we're saying that the ball becomes dead on a foul. The exception that allows an "and one" is when the shooting motion has been started. In this case, that doesn't apply, so all you have is a dead ball going through the basket.
