This is an interesting discussion.
If the dribble has ended, and the player fumbles, the player should be able to recover the ball, but not start a new dribble. If the player has not yet dribbled, the player should be able to recover and start a dribble.
I have seen these plays allowed and I've seen them called violations. (Of course, the fans are always yelling "Walk..Double Dribble", but who cares.) Maybe the NFHS "Traveling and Dribbling" video should be mandatory.
