In reality, the most probable outcome would have been the ball hitting the side of the camera, resulting in it leaving my hands and ending up somewhere hard with a fair amount of force...resulting in the lens mount snapping and the lens divorcing the camera body for good. I had that problem around 5 years ago with a cheap kit lens (THANK GOD) when I dropped a Canon Digital Rebel about four feet - the lens mount snapped and the lens went flying. What amazed me, however, was that the camera and lens worked fine if the lens was held on the camera in the right orientation... But, I don't want to try it again with this camera and especially the lens I use for shooting drive teams!
