Seems to be the same situation in OP, A1 initiated the contact with the elbow, LGP or not I have a PC foul...
LGP is only relevant for a block/charge play. When the contact involves the ball handler using his/her arm or hand, it is NOT a block/charge play. It is either illegal use of hands or a push....all still a player control foul but with no requirement for LGP.
