Dribbler Interruptus...

4-15 ART. 6
During an interrupted dribble:
a. A closely guarded count shall not be started or shall be terminated.
b. A player-control foul cannot be committed.
c. A time-out request shall not be granted.
d. Out-of-bounds violation does not apply on the player involved in the interrupted dribble.
Since team control still exists, theoretically, three seconds can still be called, and a team control foul can still be charged to any player on the offense, including the interrupted dribbler.
