Fun With A Pivot Toe …

Was this a legal move? Did the shooter move her pivot in excess of prescribed limits?

Two choices: This is a traveling violation. This is a legal play.

My comment: This is a legal play. When ball handler Red #4 picks up her dribble, both feet are on the floor. She picks up her left foot, making her right foot her pivot foot. She then picks up her right pivot foot but doesn’t return it to the floor before releasing a try for goal.

Right foot is pivot foot. I don't see any illegal movement of it.

Agree. I confused left and right. Fixed it. Thanks.

Just a common., legal, step-through move.

The fact that her pivot foot was partially lifted, while her toes stayed "nailed" to the floor, made this look "weird", and unfortunately, for some, "weird" means travel.

Pretty hard to pivot without lifting the back of one's foot.
