Isn't that redundant?

Can you give an example of an Airborne Shooter who has not released the ball? (Hint: The answer is "no".)

A ball handler becomes airborne (ball comes to rest in the player’s hands) and starts his continuous trying motion. The trying motion includes arm, foot or body movements used by the player when throwing the ball at his basket. All of this before the ball is released on a try. The player becomes an airborne shooter when both feet have left the floor and are off the ground.

Maybe he didn't release the ball because an opponent "clamped down" on his wrist?

Maybe he quite doesn't fit the official definition (ball released) of a NFHS "airborne shooter", but he certainly is airborne, and he certainly is in the act of shooting, thus he's a generic airborne shooter.

He's a shooter, and he's airborne, but he's not an airborne shooter.

4-1-1:An airborne shooter is a player who has released the ball on a try for a goal or has tapped the ball and has not returned to the floor.

Let's just say that he is a shooter that's airborne.
