Call on the court = Held ball. Thoughts?

I don't see a held ball at all. It appears to me that he got hit on the arm on the way up.

What I found interesting is the T made the call. It seemed like one of those "something strange just happened here so I need to blow my whistle" situations.

That's what I thought at first glance.

That was my thought as well which is why the C's silence didn't make sense to me since he's responsible for curl plays.

And...it didn't cause any problems but the L made the famed "good block" signal right before the whistle came from the T.

It appears like the defender may have hit the ball initially. It wasn't clear that there was a foul (from this angle). I'd call it a blocked shot.

Not a held ball, and not a travel. Legal play. The trail called the reaction and not the play. The lead knew the ball was hit (as indicated by his unauthorized signal) and knew it couldn't be a travel since the ball was knocked lose by the defense.

incidental contact on the shooter on the initial attempt...this is a travel!
