Maybe just me, but I haven't seen a call (and I never would) of closely guarded on a player in the lane.

Thanks

Why to you need to know who is guarding who? If the player in the lane has the ball and is being guarded, that is all that matters. If the player is not being guarded, they'll shoot. I can't imagine a player being unguarded in the lane for more than a split second.

That said, I've never seen it called or seen a time it should have been called.
