Well, let's put it this way: it's not going to be a held ball between the backboard and the player . . .
The loss of control you describe could be seen as a fumble; if so, the player would have the right to come down with the ball, I believe.

Yup, he does have the right to come down with the ball. Of course, he should be called for traveling as soon as he finishes exercising that right.
If they go up with player control....and come down with player control....and the ball was never touched by another player when it was loose on a fumble.... or a "try" was never released....or a defender didn't stop a "try" from being released.......then it's a travel because of a pivot-foot violation.
