It was clearly a PC.
Nelson, the UConn defender, definitely got to the spot with both feet on the floor and facing his opponent, Mason's Campbell, before the shooter's back foot left the floor.
After reaching this position all the defender did was straighten up because his knees were bent quite a bit. He is certainly allowed to move within his vertical plane.
His hands were up and out and the contact was in the upper chest.

Scott Thornley missed this one and it cost UConn three points.

PS This is about as objective as it gets since as a Georgetown guy, I can't stand UConn.
