Sniper is right. Sullinger flipped his feet there.

Let's say there was no travel. I thought the foul was a good call.

Contact (perhaps a foul) followed by a travel, followed by contact that was called.

Technically a travel and technically a foul.

Peace

In HS, he would have put his arms straight up after hearing the whistle.

Notice how often, when viewing NCAA video, the commentary contains:

"if you're not gonna call the travel...."

Trail should have got that travel...looks really bad in slow mo. Lead was obviously consumed with the player's upper bodies and their contact, just missed the feet.

I'm afraid I have to play devils advocate and say no foul, but the travel was obvious.

Pretty easy Shooting Foul IMO...

Too bad he won't be on the line to shoot though, because I'm calling that dance move of his a Travel.

Travel and a foul.

Missed call on the travel, but moreso by the T than the L. I think many officials shift focus from the feet to separation at some point in the move to the basket, and perhaps was the case on this play.

Definitely a 2 referee play! Maybe the L was a "my area" type of guy & the T let him "live & die" with the obvious violation

Get plays right!

Defenders arms were not vertical on the shot.

At full speed it looks like a no call to me (assuming travel call is missed). Defensive guy has good position, and offensive guy is out of control and creating the contact (ie invading the defender's vertical space).
