Travel? Not too shabby, as the rule states "while holding the ball," but doesn't specify where/how the ball is being held.
Seriously, though, if someone holds the ball between their legs, I'm calling a kick ball violation. If someone asks, I'd tell them that basketball is played with the hands, not the legs, and if anyone presses further, my reference is 2-3.
Also, thanks everyone for pointing out that the offense can have a kicked ball called on them. I got screamed at quite a bit over this a few years back - by my co-workers, nonetheless - and love to see people correct the myth.
