She did this while shooting or passing? From your description she has taken two steps (depending on the timing of the gather) and then shot the ball. That would not be a travel. A Euro step is a basic two step layup except instead of steping toward the basket the second step is to one side or the other.
Would you still have called it a travel if she landed on both feet instead of just the one left foot? (ie like a std jump stop)
