I know saying this is going to bring some anal officials to say something. There really is no such thing as a "moving screen." The term is not used anywhere in the "current" rulebook. A screen can be illegal while stationary or moving. The same goes for a screen can be ruled legal and illegal while stationary and moving. The term you should be using is "illegal screen" not "moving screen."

An illegal screen can be called anywhere on the court at anytime. Illegal screens have nothing to do with where it takes place on the floor; it does have to be based on "screening position." There is no such thing in the rules other than guidelines for what is legal and what is illegal. There is nothing that states an illegal screen cannot be called anywhere on the floor if the rules are violated. Usually as a rule of thumb officials might make a call based on whether the contact put someone at a disadvantage, but that can take place anywhere. There is not such thing as "screening position" and I would not know what that means or what you meant by saying that.

Peace
