The play described below is provided for your review and discussion. The rulings given are based on NFHS rules. NCAA rulings may be different.

A-1 jumps to shoot a potential three-point try.  Seeing that it may be blocked, A-1 pushes the ball to floor to start a dribble.

Handle the situation.


This is a traveling violation.  To start a dribble, A-1 must release the ball before the pivot foot comes off of the floor.  Team B will be awarded the ball at the spot nearest the violation for a designated spot throw-in.

    Very Good Play. Yes! No different then him dropping the ball and be first to touch it when he came back to the floor. Thanks!
