That first hop is a jump stop, he was allowed that. The travel came when he jumped again after the jump stop and drop the ball for what was now his 3rd dribble in this sequence.
I didn't consider the second one a dribble, no control, but if you did I could live with it. The first hop is off one foot, and he lands on just that same foot. That is not a jump stop. The third dribble can't be an illegal dribble because it's a travel for releasing it with the pivot off the floor.
