Technically it is a turnover (and a steal for the defender) if the offensive team loses possession. Personally, I believe it should be even if they don't lose possession at that time, because they are still losing a possession. It just may not effect the game until the end of the quarter or the next held ball. I just don't know who I need to talk to about getting that rule changed in the official statistician books.
