EDITED

The move he starts at 2:20 isn't. His hand is underneath the ball when he starts the spin, meaning the dribble has ended. At that point his pivot foot - the left - is still on the floor. He takes a step onto his other foot then his left foot comes down again.

If he'd landed on both feet at the same time then the move would've been legal. The only foot movement allowed after that would've been to jump to either shoot or pass the ball.
