It was close but I think he was in the path before the shooter jumped too....so no block for that reason.

#2. Legal screen. He may have firmed up at contact but didn't throw his shoulder into the screened player.
+1

I would add that in Play #1, we can't see the defender's left foot, and his right foot looks to be "just" outside the semi-circle. As for timing, I think the defender is just there. He buckles his right knee a bit, but he's not shifting after the shooter is airborne IMO
