My primary question was the player moving off his left knee onto his left foot, about if that could be considered traveling or not.
1. The ball itself does not have to go into the backcourt. Had his foot touched the line or beyond prior to releasing the shot, it would have been a violation. As it is, it's difficult to tell.

2. No, it's not a travel. Lifting one knee isn't a travel in this case. If it was the only knee down, then it would be. He doesn't stand, or attempt to stand.
