Well, if you're playing high school rules, this is right outa this year's high school case book:
10.6.1SITUATION C: B1 is standing behind the plane of the backboard before A1 jumps for a lay-up shot. The forward momentum causes airborne shooter A1 to charge into B1.
RULING: B1 is entitled to the position attained legally before A1 left the floor. If the ball goes through the basket before or after the contact occurs, the player-control foul cancels the basket. However, if B1 moves into the path of A1 after A1 has left the floor, the foul is on B1. B1's foul on the airborne shooter is a foul during the act of shooting. If the shot is successful, one free throw is awarded and if it is unsuccessful, two free throws result.
Dem's the rules. Iow, forget about the concept of "under the basket" or a "semi-circle" being used in high school games.
