He might not have two hands on the ball until both feet are in the air around the three point line (generous interpretation). Then, each foot touches the floor once, which would make this a correct no call.

First, two hands on the ball isn't necessary. When the ball comes to rest in one hand, the player is holding the ball and the travel rules come into effect.
However, even if we go by your opinion of when the player got two hands on the ball, it is still a travel.
For it to not be a travel, he would have had to catch it no sooner than near the FT line where the right foot is coming down.
