It was a deflected pass is what was said, therefore it wasnt a shot. It is the same thing that if you are standing outside the 3 point line, bounce the ball inside the line and if it goes in it is a two. Even thought the passer was outside the three line, it was a pass, if he would have gotten fouled, he wouldnt get three shots for it. Deflecting a 3 point shot still counts as a three pointer because if he got fouled, it would have been three free throws.
