Is this a traveling violation? Observe the play and make a ruling as to whether or not the player driving to the basket and attempting a try for goal commits a traveling violation.
Two choices:
This is a traveling violation. This is a legal play.
My comment: This is a legal play. A player must be holding the ball (with rare exception) in order to travel. A player can't travel while tapping the ball, or while fumbling it. During a fumble the player is not in control of the ball, and therefore, cannot be called for a traveling violation. A fumble is the accidental loss of player control when the ball is unintentionally dropped, or slips from a player’s grasp. After a player has ended a dribble and fumbled the ball, that player may recover the ball without violating. Any steps taken during the recovery of a fumble are not traveling, regardless of how far the ball goes, and the amount of advantage that is gained.
