I/m with JRut on this one. IMO, there was LGP and the appearance of the defender moving into the path of the shooter is nothing but his right foot being moved under his body to steady himself. Look and you will see the left foot is planted squarely. Although I must admit is is a close one, but I got a "headache" (PC) and going the other way with it.
How about this:

Imagine the defender suddenly changes into a stationary sculpture at the moment the offensive player starts his shooting motion.

if the shooter changes his path so that the contact with the sculpture would have been avoided, then foul on defender.

if the shooter keep his path or does not change his path enough so that he would have collided with the sculpture anyway, then foul on shooter.

Thanks.
