LGP is not relevant for determining if there was any advantage. LGP is not relevant to this play.
If it affects the shot, yes. If it doesn't affect the shot, then no. Not all contact is a foul, by rule there must be some sort of advantage for it to be a foul.
4-27-3 "Contact which does not hinder the opponent from participating in normal defensive or offensive movements should be considered incidental.
