My only question is that, even though the C got the call right, I would think that would be the L's coverage. Of course, the NBA may do it different. Who was covering the ball/drive that was kicked out to the C's side? That is certainly a difficult position for the L to cover the ball.

Why would this be the L's area? The passer goes to the basket from outside the lane and the C properly follows him for a pass/crash contact. And he sees whether the motion to the basket had started as well. Now the L might give some information if he felt that the contact took place before the motion started and could have been discussed, but I think the C has an open look to the entire play. The C has the best angle on this play as they are not straight-lined or have no players in front of him to see the contact.
