The defender moves to the side and takes up a legal guarding position before the shotter jumps up. The contact is on the defender's torso, so he cannot be responsible for the contact, only the shooter who jumps towards him. However, the defender is inside the semi-circle, therefore an offensive foul cannot be called. No call is the correct call.
