Some would even argue that the player met the path requirement by being between the opponent and the basket. In this case, I'd agree.

Remind me, what's the argument for defining "path" as the location between the offensive player and the basket, instead of the "path" the offensive player is currently taking, regardless of which direction he is going?

What about an offensive player that is retreating and changes direction to drive into the defender that has come out to guard. I don't think anyone would suggest such defender doesn't have LGP before the offensive player turns to drive towards the defender. It just doesn't make sense to allow an offensive player to move along, but not directly towards an opponent who is moving laterally relative to the offensive player, only to lunge towards the defender when the defender lifts a foot. Since the book doesn't formally define path, I suggest that it means not only the direction the player is moving but any direction the player wants to move (to the basket). The very essence of defense is to cut off the path to the basket.

If that were true, it harkens back to a comment made by the NFHS in this year's POE. Does anyone else recall the NFHS saying that a player could maintain LGP by jumping sideways? Is that statement accurate? https://forum.officiating.com/basket...ml#post1006385 Note the words "or laterally" in POE #5. The NCAA does not seem to agree with that given its language about a defender needing to jump from A and return to A. Last edited by Nevadaref; Wed Jul 26, 2017 at 02:54am. |

The backcourt rule will be the most difficult thing for those bouncing between NFHS and NCAA, IMO. |

Agreed. I've worked more than a few high school games where we have these types of fouls and I'm the only one that's coming in to make sure we don't shoot free throws.
