In the act of shooting?
A1 rebounds the ball and begins the habitual motion to shoot. B1 grabs A1's arm. You have a whistle at this point for a foul. A1 gives up on that attempt then makes a legal step through move to the basket and makes a bank shot.
How do you handle this play? Note: You deem A1 to be in the act of shooting before his arm is grabbed. The step through move was a separate act of shooting. |

I think you can answer your question. The step through isn't continuous motion, it is another move after the whistle. If anything, you can tell A1 to stop on the whistle?

It's still a shooting foul if the contact prevents release of the try. I agree with Tom that the second move is an independent try (with a dead ball).

I agree that, if in doubt, it was continuous motion.

According to the philosophies of many on here as expressed in another recent thread, that would not be a shooting foul at all since he didn't continue to shoot after the foul but made another move prior to actually shooting.
![]() I don't agree with them, however. ![]()
