I got guff from the coach when I banged the shooter for an offensive foul on a play similar to what you have described. But I'm confident the illegal contact was caused not by the defense. The shooter "hindered an opponent from performing normal defensive...movements" (4-19-1), i.e., running in front of a guy whose leg was sticking out there at a 90 degree angle from his body. That seems to fit 10-6-1, "...by bending his/her body into other than a normal position".
