I'm with JR. Specifically ask the players. If you realize your mistake quickly, look around and eliminate two or three players by logic. The long-haired guy was shooting, the guy with braces has played the whole game above the arc. Then re-play the foul in your mind and look for any telling physical detail such as a mis-match in height between the foul-er and the foul-ee, or a racial difference. Then go to the most likely player and ask quietly, "Are you the one who got shoved in the back on that last rebound?" Even if that guy isn't the right one, he very likely will know who it was.
