4-15-4: The dribble ends when:
a. The dribbler catches or causes the ball to come to rest in one or both
hands.
b. The dribbler palms/carries the ball by allowing it to come to rest in one or
both hands.
c. The dribbler simultaneously touches the ball with both hands.
d. The ball touches or is touched by an opponent and causes the dribbler to
lose control.
The dribble also ends in other ways that are not mentioned. This list is how a dribble usually ends and defines that if these happen, the dribble has ended. However, I can think of several situations where a dribble ends without any of the above happening.
