And that's completely legal. There's nothing in the definition of an interrupted dribble that says it has to be an accidentally loss of control.

An interrupted dribble occurs when the ball is loose after deflecting off the dribbler or after it momentarily gets away from the dribbler.

The play you posted is legal.
