Hello,

If player A goes to shoot and player B hits the ball and part of the hand, is it a foul?

OR...

If player A shoots and player B hits ball to side then player B's same hand contiues motion and hits player A's arm, is that a foul?

Thanks!
Jim

Assuming the defender has legal position then

1. No

2. Most likely not a foul the way I read it.
