3) player drops to his knee while holding the ball
Always traveling anytime a player holding the ball tocuhes the floor with any part of his body other than his foot or hand.
Always is a strong word because if you are in one of those places that uses NCAA women's rules ( such as colleges) and NYS high school girls basketball this is not a travel violation. It is recognized that just dropping to one kneee does not necessarily mean the pivot foot moved illegally.
