Is he allowed to jump stop in this scenario and then hold the ball i.e. not shoot or pass?
I edited your post to show the answer, as was hinted at previously.

Or, another way of putting it -- when is it ever illegal to hold the ball (at least until some 3-second or 5-second or 10-second or 24-second, ... rule comes into play)?
