The rule doesn't say he can't touch the ball again, it says that he can't dribble it again, and dribbling involves the hands.

9-5: A player shall not dribble a second time after his/her first dribble has ended …

4-15-1: A dribble is ball movement caused by a player in control who bats
(intentionally strikes the ball with the hand(s)) or pushes the ball to the floor once
or several times. It is not a part of a dribble when the ball touches a player’s own
backboard.
