Imagine defender B1 guarding A1 in the right block. B1 has inside position. A1 makes a spin move around B1 but leads with the elbow, using the back of the left arm to hold the defender's left side. This prevents B1 from moving into position to stop the spin and A1 gets an easy lay-up/dunk (girls/boys
).
See it all the time, it gets called about half the time.
Difference between what I said and previous post is previous poster implies displacement (a push). I have no displacement, but the contact prevents normal defensive movement.
