I ask b/c the team had the ball but they had it "illegally" at that point.

Wrong, it wasn't "during" a violation; it was "after" a violation that hadn't been called. They can't go back and call that violation.

They no more had the ball "illegally" at that point than if they had gotten away with a travel right before the whistle.
