Blue's arm is in the neighborhood and as Arem said, there was a bump also. He just let it play out and called the last foul/contact. Doesn't have to call the hold....

And I didn't catch the bump until Arem pointed it out.
The bump with the hip is there. It is better seen from the overhead camera view. I believe that the hold before the offensive player goes airborne is clearer and more obvious. However, the Lead's positioning on the endline may prevent him from being able to observe the arm contact.
