First time ever basket interference call, was I correct?

Did the ring contact the ball, or did the ball go straight "through" without contacting the ring?

4-6-4: Basket Interference: Pulls down a movable ring so that it contacts the ball before the ring returns to its original position.

It doesn't matter.

4-6-1: Basket interference: Touches the ball or any part of the basket (including the net) while the ball is on or within either basket.

You're right. In contact with basket (ring) when the ball goes through (in the basket) is definitely basket interference. I somehow, mistakenly, pictured the ball in the cylinder, not in the basket, as the ring sprang back into position.
