The ball can't come to rest "against the stomach, knee, hip, etc."
unless the hand is also against the ball. Therefore, if it comes to rest in the player's hand, the dribble has ended. So, the "other" body part is of non consequence.
If the ball comes to rest and the hand is touching it, the dribble has ended.
