If defender keeps hands up, and the elbow is basically a straight arm, I've got nothing. If the defender was bringing the hands down and the elbow was bent, well, maybe. I'd have to see it to call it.
Hmmm...isn't there something in the book about the screened player needing to be able to take a normal step in these situations?
Yea, but that's why I'd want to see it. I'm not sure how I'd define a "full step", and I'd want to see the movement of the defender, and the distance between, to see if I'd call anything. I can't imagine calling an elbow in this case, unless there was a deliberate attempt.
