So how much "benefit of the doubt" do we give for this? Two gray areas:
1. Dribbler's or shooter's hand is actually off the ball, but the action of the defender pushes the hand back into contact... At what distance from the ball does the handler's hand have to be?
2. What part of the hand? if defender gets her fingers down onto the hand of the handler, but defender's palm makes contact with the wrist, is that legal?
