I've seen it once. Had it a couple of years ago.
A1 was fouled while rebounding. As I blew the whistle, he intentionally came around with his elbow and nailed the kid who had failed him, right in the jaw.
Easy call. See ya.
Again, if I thought it was intentional, it would be flagrant in my book. But that doesn't mean every elbow thrown is intentional. It could be called a PC if judged unintentional. But I can't see ignoring it completely if the elbower swings his elbow outside his vertical plane.
