It certainly could have been but I guess it was missing the element of stopping an an opponent in an obviously advantageous position. It isn't like the fouled player was looking at an open shot.

Yeah, I get that. But intentionally grabbing a player's ankle isn't basketball, and it's certainly a safety risk. This play is an intentional for me (I won't say "in my game") 10 times out of 10.

Once I've seen the play ten times, I'll worry about what to do the eleventh.

I don't disagree, just offering a reason some may not call an intentional.
