Regarding traveling I look for the lifting of the pivot foot off the floor. On a shot or pass the ball must be released before the foot is replaced on the floor. On a dribble the ball must be released before the pivot foot is lifted. That's why I'd have to see the play when the ball was capped to see if it was a pass/shot or a dribble.If a player started what I determined to be a pass or shot and was defended and then released as for a dribble that would constitute traveling.
If the tiptoe is the pivot foot and it comes off the floor it is subject to my definition of traveling above.
