Sat night Boys Varsity Game. Freethrow lane. The first lane spaces are filled with the defense and the second lane spaces are filled with the offense. In this situation before the shot is even taken the offense in the second lane space is leaning on the defense in the first lane space. Is this a violation? When the ball hits the rim, the defense doesn't have a chance they are already pinned. They do not have a chance to step in the lane to essentially make a good block out. Seems like the offense has created an advantage on this sort of speak pre-shot lean. What's your call?
