When the ball comes to rest, i.e. the ball stops moving.

Now, let's go to the videotape.

6-4-3-D: Alternating-possession throw-ins shall be from the out-of-bounds
spot nearest to where the ball was located. An alternating-possession throw-in
shall result when: A live ball lodges between the backboard and ring or comes to rest on the
flange, unless a free throw or throw-in follows.

6-7-3: The ball becomes dead, or remains dead, when: A held ball occurs, or the ball lodges between the backboard and ring or comes to rest on the flange.
