ART. 1...Guarding is the act of legally placing the body in the path of an offensive opponent...
And that is why the above play would be a block in NFHS...neither player had their body in the path before the opponent was airborne. They only had the feet in the path.

And even in the US, I'm NOT calling this a block since the airborne player dumped the ball off to a teammate who was in great position for a very short range shot....either getting 2 points or getting fouled while shooting. Calling that block would penalize the offensive team.
