“This is an example of a defensive foul for impeding progress. The defensive player, Mario Hezonja, grabs and holds the arm of the offensive player, Lou Williams. This illegal contact impedes the offensive player’s progress as he moves to receive the pass. A defensive player may not dislodge or reroute an offensive player, nor may he impede an offensive player’s progress.”
