Fiba Rules 1998-2002

[bogref_jed]

A1 drives to the basket with 3 steps away from hoop. Suddenly, B1 with the intention to knocking out/block the ball, crossed the path of A1 making no contact (A1 still on the floor):

QUESTION:

Is there any violation made by B1 under the present FIBA rules, if:

aa) A1 was able to made the basket
bb) A1 was distracted and was not able to make the basket

Appreciate your quick reply on this matter.
