Also, consider that 24 pulls her hand back quickly, as if to recoil from an errant poke.

But that's being very benevolent with a possible explanation. From what we see here, this ain't gonna get my whistle put to use, white or not.

The fact is we don't/can't know. Would have to ask C what he saw.

Blue #00 may have made contact with her left hand while White #22 is attempting a try. Contact, if any, isn't conclusive based on video.

It sure looked like #24 could have been pushing the shooter. The referee would have had a perfect angle for that. I wouldn't have been able to call it from the angle that we have with the video but I'm guessing it was probably the correct call.
