Personal foul for targeting...oh wait, wrong sport.

I think a common foul is appropriate here considering the defender tripped.

APG, I don't recall this play in the past.

I've got just a common foul because of the feet tangling.

Defender clearly tripped over the right foot of the prone ball handler. Common foul is enough.

Peace

Ball handler is actually supine. (Prone is face down.)

I have a common foul, too.

Is "On his back" better?

Better than "over the back!"

Cool. Even at my age, I can learn something new by just paying attention.
