Duke-MSU elbow thrown

6 minutes and change to go in the game.

How is that not an ejection? How is it not even a flagrant foul?

I'm not a basketball official, but ejection seems like the ONLY possibility here. To call it basically a contact technical seems like a tremendous failure on the officials' part.

I don't intend to bash, but I have no understanding of how someone can intentionally elbow someone in the face away from the ball and have it not even be considered a flagrant foul.

Perhaps it was a flagrant 1 with a poor explanation from the announcers? But I still don't see how he stays in the game.
