Your thought is correct. |
Whoa, there! Jritchie's thought was NOT correct. If A2 is fouled while A1 is in the act of shooting, the basket will count even if the ball is still in A1's hand at the time of the foul. It does NOT have to be released.
Continuous motion applies to
any defensive foul (as long as it's not part of a double foul), just as Bob J said.
