Rule 5, Section 2, Article 1: "A successful try, tap or thrown ball from the field by a player who is located behind the team's own 19-foot, 9-inch arc counts three points. A ball that touches the floor, a teammate inside the arc, an official, or any other goal from the field counts two points for the team into whose basket the ball is thrown." Since the ball was touched by a defender, it should have counted three points, whether it was a shot or pass.
