What does the rule book say is "unsportsmanlike conduct"? I don't believe this applies. That's why I used the terms "poor form" and "bad sportsmanship". Yes, it's nuanced.

Shooting a three pointer at the buzzer of a game you are already winning by 30 when the defense is already walking towards their bench is poor form/bad sportsmanship . I don't believe anyone thinks it rises to the level of unsportsmanlike conduct.
