Is that against the rules? Can anyone clearly clearly explain this rule to me please? Thanks
If I am visualizing this correctly, your started the dribble shortly after you caught the pass. Then the dribble ended when you grabbed it with two hands. So when you started to dribble again, that was a violation.
