chseagle, the case play you've posted is correct.

So the situation would only occur if say the person who fouled the shooter was purposefully trying injure the shooter? Or maybe there's too much physicality between the two so the foul was done in retailiation?

If the player was purposefully trying to injure the player, it would be a flagrant. An intentional is not defined that way. It could be excessive contact, it could be a simple push or hold that is obviously not playing the ball.

The foul does not have to be intent to injure. The foul could be savage and violent in nature as well to be flagrant. At least that is the definition.

I know, but I was answering his question regarding intent to injure.
