JugglingReferee In reading about some misunderstanding about intentional fouls, flagrant fouls, etc.... Wouldn't it be nice if someone provided a link to a flowchart showing all the type of fouls? 😮

During a live ball, Flagrant fouls are only for the racial slur/profanity type foul, or something that's really a fight. Jurassic Referee wroteRainmaker, that's completely wrong. Excessive live ball contact can be either intentional or flagrant. It's a judgment call that is based on the severity of the act. The fact that the ball is live or not determines whether the foul is personal or technical, except for the exception in 4-19-1NOTE. Whether the ball is live or not is not a factor as to whether a foul is intentional or flagrant. Flagrant fouls do not have to have anything to do with a fight either. It can be an attempt to injure. 👍
OKREF chip8989 wroteHere is FIBA, #48. So it would seem to me that signal 48 would be the signal for a flagrant foul. So there are different signals for intentional and flagrant.
