There are lots of different kinds of legal jump stops. In some cases one can subsequently pivot, in other cases one can't subsequently pivot.
2002-03 NFHS Basketball Rules Interpretations Situation 14: A1 catches a pass while in the air, lands on one foot and then jumps off that foot and lands on one foot followed immediately by a step with the other foot. Ruling: Traveling violation. (4-43-2; 9-4)
4-44: Traveling is moving a foot or feet in any direction in excess of prescribed limits while holding the ball. The limits on foot movements are as follows:
A player who catches the ball while moving or dribbling may stop and establish a pivot foot as follows:
If both feet are off the floor and the player lands:
Simultaneously on both feet, either foot may be the pivot.
On one foot followed by the other, the first foot to touch is the pivot.
On one foot, the player may jump off that foot and simultaneously land on both. Neither foot can be a pivot in this case.
