Technically, I guess 44-1 where it says A Player who catches the ball with both feet on the floor may pivot using either foot. When one foot is lifted, the other is the pivot.
44-4 does say one or both may be lifted but not returned to the floor before ball is released....but it also is preceded by After coming to stop and neither foot can be a pivot |
The beginning of 4-44 establishes that foot movement, while holding the ball, outside the prescribed limits is a travel. If a player does something with his/her feet while holding the ball that is not described, it is, by definition, a travel.
