Shooting Foul? (Video)

Yes.

Thank you. Can you elaborate?

It sounded like there was a whistle blown when the ball handler was way out at the top of the key prior to her "drive". The ball would become dead at that point. I think that was what the lead was trying to get people to understand. And if that wasn't the case, it looks like #15 fouled the ball handler prior to the shot anyway.

Thank you. There were six simultaneous games in the gym. That whistle was from one of the adjacent games. Afterward he signals player 15.

Since the foul was called on 15 I can live with no shots.

I'm pretty sure the whistle for this foul is the one I hear when Lead puts his arm up. I didn't know there was confusion about which whistle was which, I thought it was clear.

Contact by #15 is marginal, this should be a good bucket and foul on #21. I can see why he would wave off the shot if he got #15 for the foul, but he would be incorrect in doing so.

Take an extra second -- much easier to sell a shooting foul if the whistle comes a beat later. And you may decide (by letting the play finish) that it's not actually a foul.
