• An illegal defensive action.
  • Occurs when a defender wraps, holds, or grabs an opponent around the waist or torso.
  • Most commonly seen when:
    • A defender jumps to deflect or intercept a pass.
    • The defender uses the arms to gain leverage or a better position.
  • Wrapping restricts the opponent’s freedom of movement.
  • This action is not incidental contact.
  • The correct ruling is a **personal foul on the defender**.
