I am not sure about that as I am reading it. Again this is more of a what if, but I would have to see the play to say the attempt was simply over. Because if the player was making a dunk and was fouled and the ball slipped out of his hand, I probably going to give that player the benefit. Not saying that is what I would do in this specific situation, but I would not consider the play automatically over just because the ball is slightly out of the hand of the shooter for a very brief moment.

Peace
