I have started the count for closely guarding because the defender was within 6 feet and between the player in control and the basket. The player in control pivoted so he was facing the backcourt. The defender ran around the offensive player so he was between the offensive player and the mid-court line but still within the requisite 6 feet. I stopped my count because I had interpretted "in the path" to be between the ball and the basket.

I'm with willie. If the player is holding the ball and not dribbling, there is no path because she can't move. Continue the count.
