I see white #3 having the ball knocked away. White #3 does not go immediately to the ball but instead holds black.
Especially in men's leagues, I have had players say that contact (such as pushing an opposing player) should not be a foul because it was a loose ball.
I believe the teaching point is that white still has team-control since black had not secured control. Therefore, a foul by white going for the loose ball is still a Team-Control foul and free throws should not have been awarded.
