Two thoughts:
First, the new L would've been able to see it had he made it to his position in time. For whatever reason it didn't look as though he was moving as fast as he could and then he got stuck in the no-man's land of "should I go to the end line or should I stop and look outside-in on this." Either way, he should've run straight to close down once he got to the end line since the ball was coming up the center of the court. Standing out in the A position by the arc doesn't do much on a play under the goal and he was straight-lined as the play moved to the top of the circle.
Second, I'm going back on forth on whether the C could've have seen this and I think it's possible. It appears as though he had a high enough angle when B3 contacted the shooter that he could've seen the push. I'm not saying it would've been easy but given that A1's primary defender went past him as he took off it's not as though the C was dealing with a block-charge situation.
