This is a prototypical example of incidental contact. The defender had legal guarding position; neither player displaced the other; neither was hindered from normal activity by the action of the other.
In other words, if the dribbler falls, it's his own dumb fault. No whistle here. If the kid picks up his dribble before hitting the ground, oh well. . . Tweet! Travel.
