I focused on the wrong part of OP.

After re-reading it, I'm going to need to find a rules reference. The player didn't attempt a try cause it was at the wrong basket, so the team control is there. She then caught the ball again and started another dribble. Yeah sounds like an illegal dribble.

Rules reference to come.

9-5. none of the exceptions applied. Illegal dribble

I used Case 9.5b, but it didn't stop me from doubting myself.

I could've (should've) made the call when the ball hit the backboard, I believe.

So I should have stopped play when she collected the ball after the missed layup. Agree?

Yes, because it hit the backboard. If it only hit the rim, and she hadn't moved her pivot....

If A2 had not touched the ball again after it hit the backboard, no violation.
