No rule requires this to be an intentional foul. It is always up to the official's judgment. A defensive player could be called for holding an offensive player who is trying to get free for the pass. It need not be intentional.

I have called this a common foul many times...early in the game and late in the game. The player's action determines if it is intentional.
