Any violation here? If not, can he dribble again?

I know this has been discussed on here before but finding it may not be as easy as reposting the question. I think that there is no violation here and the player can even dribble again.

I'll hang up and listen.

Nothing. Here's the case book ruling. Situation A is the closest to your description:

4.44.3 SITUATION A:

A1 jumps to try for goal. B1 also jumps and: (a) slaps the ball out of A1's hands; (b) touches the ball but does not prevent A1 from releasing the ball; (c) touches the ball and A1 returns to the floor holding the ball; or (d) touches the ball and A1 drops it to the floor and touches it first after it bounces.

RULING: In (a) and (b), the ball remains live. In (c), a traveling violation. In (d), a violation for starting a dribble with the pivot foot off the floor. Since the touching did not prevent the pass or try in (b), (c) and (d), the ball remains live and *subsequent action is covered by rules which apply to the situation.
