No. See Case Play 4.35.2 (c) for your exact play.


3. Top of backboard, how is the ball determined dead on a missed shot that goes over the backboard, touches the top and comes back into play, etc.


As soon as the ball passes over the backboard or hits any kind of support or guide wire, it's out of bounds.
Rule 7.1 Article 2.


4. Can I player catch his own shot if the shot is an air ball?

Yes, player control ends on a shot attempt.
