If the ball had definitely stopped bouncing on the floor, maybe it was motionless, and just sitting there, and if the ball handler never touched the ball with both hands, or held the ball, would one allow the ball handler to just keep on dribbling? The dribble never really ended? Right?
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.
e. The ball becomes dead.
