NFHS Rules: A1 receives the ball at the post position. A1 pivots, takes two steps to the basket and lays the ball up for a score. I am being told that in this situation A1 is allowed the two steps without dribbling. In other situations this would be traveling. I can't find a good explanation for this in the rule book. Is this correct?.

If the pivot foot was lifted and returned to the floor before the ball left the shooter's hand, it's a travel.
The travelling rules don't change just because the ball is in the post.
