PALMING
Rule 4; Sec 15; Art 4b states:"Theh dribble ends when: The dribbler palms/carries the ball........etc.
I have not seen the term "palm" used here yet, I believe that palming DOES defy gravity. I have a small hand and since I can palm a ball off the dribble then I would assume that most other players can too. (palming meaning keeping the palm of the hand directly facing the floor but gripping the ball so that it "sticks" to the hand.
