The rule does call it a held ball. Of course, historically a held ball resulted in a jump ball. And many people still call it a jump even today. Don't let the pedants put you off. Call it a jump ball or held ball, we know what you mean.
BTW, I had a held ball resulting in a jump ball in a game this morning. What was the name of that thread? Welcome back to the 70's.
