You all must not be watching the same video....

The defender has a step and a half (slide steps, so she wasn't going that fast) prior to contact, screener is set, defender had ample time to stop or adjust. The ball handler set the defender up properly, the screener was set prior to contact, and contact wasn't initiated by the screener. It was close enough that I would have no called the play, but the screener was fine, IMO.

I agree. You're watching a different video.

That is for sure because that clearly isn't what happened .

I think if you expand the screen you will see that the screeners feet land on the ground from her jump while the defender is moving. therefore the derfender did not have the opportunity to avoid contact per the rule cite above which clearly makes this an illegal screen.

Run at full speed it looks even more blatant because you can't tell if the sccreener is even on the floor.

You're absolutely 100% correct....... We must be watching 2 different videos. I stand on my previous comment to the OP and agree with the above post by (OHBREF???)..
