Did not know that one.
You still don't.

If the contact doesn't hinder or disadvantage the shooter it is incidental, just like any other foul/no-call situation.

If the contact knocks the shooter on their butt, that's easy.

But the shooter doesn't need to go down for there to be a foul, contact that severely hinders their landing or puts them at a disadvantage to rebound may also be a foul.

It's why we get paid the big bucks.
