Break-away dunk - off the backboard. Legal?

Player A1 makes a steal at mid-court and goes in for an uncontested score. As he approaches the basket, he throws the ball off the backboard and dunks it. Legal? After he grabs the ball following his last dribble isn't throwing it off the backboard considered another dribble and therefore this should be ruled a double dribble? I've seen this play a few times and I don't think I've ever seen a violation called.
