Player A1 is underneath the backboard and has to jump back into the defender for a shot but before doing so A1 fake the shot and gets B1 to jump, A1 than jumps back to B1 and try to attempt a shot but could not because the contact made by A1 caused A1 to fall down. So what would you call here?
A) Player control foul
B) No call
C) Foul on B1
Now I was told by some veteran officials here that I could of called A, B or C.
But better of calling C because that way I wont have to hear it from A1 and his/her coach and where contact was made by B1, most chances B1 will not argue that call since contact was made even though A1 initiated the contact.
But also was told that if that scenario was to happen above the 3 point line that I should call for a player control foul since its clear who initiated the contact as where the other one underneath the basket was in a crowd an the only person who really can see it is the official.
I noticed a lot of players fake their opponent in the air than jumps into them to get a call an a lot do get the call, I even seen it in The NBA and NCAA and officials is giving the offensive player the calls.
