The dribbler didn't stick her leg out. That's an entirely different situation. In this case, the leg had the pivot foot on the end of it. The dribbler has the right and the responsibility to maintain that pivot foot. And she is entitled to the space above it. Could the defender straddle her head while she leaned over at mick's 30 degree angle?
