What would you judge this act to be if not a dribble? It kinda meets the criteria of an interrupted dribble.
There is nothing illegal about a player running to any particular spot on the floor. Please don't try to penalize anyone for that.

Yes, I believe that this qualifies as an interrupted dribble once the ball is clearly out of player control.
