Question Deliberately versus accidentally scoring in own basket

The FIBA Rules state:

16.2.2. If a player accidentally scores a field goal in his team’s basket, the goal counts 2 points and shall be recorded as having been scored by the captain of the opposing team on the playing court

16.2.3. If a player deliberately scores a field goal in his team’s basket, it is a violation and the goal does not count.

So how to interpret Deliberately. I looked in the FIBA official interpretations. There is no example covering this point.

If a ball is knocked in during rebounding or a pass is deflected in the basket then this can easily be seen as an accidental field goal and counts.
Clearly should count

But what if a player deliberately puts the ball in the basket. They forgot which basket they should be putting the ball in.
  • Is this a deliberate action that is mistaken?
  • or an accidental action since the player was confused ?

Does 16.2.2 or 16.2.3 apply and why ?
What is the correct ruling in NBA ?
