We've had a simialr discussion of this type of play before...someone will come along with specific rule citations shortly, but in a nutshell:

NFHS: each player is entitled to a spot on the floor (regardless of player location or whether player is standing/kneeling/laying down.

NCAA-M: any player that has not established LGP and causes (by way of contact) the ball handler to trip/fall/loose control of the ball has committed an "automatic" (to use a John Adams term) foul.
