Actually, it meets the definition of an
illegal dribble. See jar's response above.

Yep - 4-15.
If it's not 4-15, then what rule would you use to govern the ball movement/play as described?

I believe the case play he mentions - 4.15.4 Sit E (b) - changed the original interp from a dribble violation to a traveling violation. Not many of us can figure why it's traveling, but at least we agree it's still a violation nontheless.
