Video Request: Illegal Screen or Block?

[deecee]

BNR said it best as to the ball handlers movement why it was a foul. A lot CAN happen but it doesn't change what happened and doesn't excuse legal versus illegal contact. There are many legally executed dribble handoffs and this, even though botched, was definitely not one of them.

Freedom of movement applies to the defense as much as the offense and each player on the court has a right to not be illegally prevented from moving to where they were going.
