NBA Referees This is a great example of a play that was correctly called a foul based on the interpretations of the last several seasons, but this season this play will NOT be a defensive foul as this will now be considered an abnormal shot attempt.

One of these plays was deemed an offensive foul the other was deemed a defensive foul Both were challenged and upheld by the officials

LeBron and Steve Nash breakdown some examples of foul calls from this season and how they wish they were called

Tim Hardaway Jr airballs the 3-point shot out of bounds and lands on Jordan Miller's foot with replays The referees call a replay review to check for a 'hostile act' and end up giving 3 free throws no flagrant Ty Lue cannot believe they checked for flagrant without a foul call

Luka Doncic gets fouled while he was about to pass in mid-air and as soon as he hears the whistle he attempts a shot receiving a shooting foul - two free throws with a replay

Anthony Edwards contests Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's jumper at the end of the 1st quarter SGA thinks it was a foul with a replay

Can someone explain to my why this isnt an offensive foul on Jaylen Brown
