Oh my, this is a slam dunk.
A1 initiated the contact, therefore PC. It's important not to over-think it.
Lots of times we have situations where a dribbler is driving, with a defender trying to stay with them. You're thinking the whole time, "get ready, there's gonna be contact, and it's looking like a block". Just when you're ready for the block call, the offensive player pushes off, straight-arms, or drops their shoulder. Tweet. PC.
This is no different. Yes B1 did not have position, but the only CONTACT on the play was initiated by A1.
Daryl:
The key here is "A1 with the ball in their right hand pushes B1 with their left arm/elbow".
If he'd waited, he'd have gotten the call. But instead, he decided to be an idiot and elbow the defender. Too bad for him. PC foul all the way, my friend.
That's why is' always important to....
