Intentional

[jallen]

In FIBA, an unsporting foul occurs when you disregard the spirit of the game, here the defender clearly had no intentions of playing the ball, he ran the shooter, clear and simple. In FIBA this is not called intentional but unsportwmqn like. I had a very similar situation just last night, called the US followed by the T. I called yet another US during the same game when player who was on a clear break was yelled at by the defender during the shot, US and must be called. A warning may be given if the ball scored but not if it missed
the penalty here is stiff, 2 for the T, 2 for the US and then white gets the ball, possible 7 pt play ( if a 3 is made) or 8 if fouled while making a 3
