I need to correct myself: both the C and the T were backing out when the shot went up/while the ball was in the air. There was also an "area of intersection" moment on the shot since both the C and the T went up with the three-point attempt signal. It was shot from the T's primary but given the previous pass came from the C's primary I'd like to think the T would've been off ball and left that one alone.

Of course, the fact the C had dropped back into a trail position when the action got in front of him didn't help at all.
