I think in any rule set this is a travel.

If he catches on 1 he can hope to 2. (For us in Fiba he could 1-2 and hop to 2 and shoot it because its really 0-1 - Hop)

Lets stay focused though. It is illegal to catch with both feet down and then hop to both feet again and hop up to shoot it. The tricky elements here are from the first few i thought it looked bad but wasn't sure, from the 2nd view I was definitely sure. There are no officials with either of those views the official with the best look at it may be a little screened out by the shooters body in terms of when the ball hits/hands vs when its actually caught and what his feet are doing when . . . I think in real time its a missed but not a terrible one.

On this forum and IRL we are routinely told if the travel is your best call your not a great official, Most coaches/players/AD's/ and even some assignors do not want games where tons of travels are called (whether its the right call or not) and want you 100% certain when you call one. The NCAA and NFHS are the only two major rule sets to not adopt the 0 step rule used by the pros and internationally to allow more athletic and dynamic movements (see: call less travels on athletes making exciting plays). As a result more of these type of plays at all levels and rule sets show up and get let go . . .

So to be clear:

- Upon review its a travel.
- It should be a travel but is one that can be easily missed or overlooked take it up with your particular embassy of Rome to see how you should be responding locally.
