First of all, Joe Ingles can barely jump, period. Second, Brooks went flying into Ingles' body. There's really not debate on this.
I think it was more Ingles sliding over. Again, if player safety is a concern, you look at Ingles actively initiating more contact in a dangerous situation with someone in mid-air vs him not, the challenge was stupid, but this is something that is dangerous for Brooks, who I doubt was trying to jump into Ingles and was just trying to block a shot.
At the same time, this challenge may make the refs who rewatched it be more hesitant with calls. Maybe a physiological mind game to let the Grizzlies play more aggressive defense after seeing that situation and by rule, having to favor the Jazz
