Legal play, no push off by dribbler on step back Offensive foul, dribbler pushes off on step back Offensive foul, dribbler pushes off on step back
“This is an example of an offensive foul for an illegal push off. The dribbler, Nikola Jokic, starts toward the basket, and by combining a sudden stop with an illegal push off with his off arm, he creates space between himself and his legal defender, Ivica Zubac. The extension of his left arm from elbow to wrist to push off his defender is illegal, and it is an offensive foul. An offensive player may not push off their legal defender in any way.”
