Pushing defender away with ball?

[JugglingReferee]

While there was no direct body contact, it can't be fair that B1 is displaced nonetheless.

The immediate turnover negates a whistle, but without it, I think you have to at least consider calling a foul.

I'd like to see a case play that describes using the ball to clear space to move.

What if A1 were driving down the lane and stuck the ball out and B1 fell down from the contact with the ball?
