If the defender has established LGP...then we need to penalize "illegal" contact by the ball handler when it affects the defenders RSBQ.
When an offensive player pushes with their arm, this is a foul on the offensive player regardless of whether the defender has LGP. LGP is only relevant for block vs. charge. All other types of fouls (this one is illegal use of hands) are independent of LGP.
