If a player is standing, holding the ball
with two hands, can he legally bring the ball to touch the floor, even though the ball has not left his hands. Is this a no-call, or a double dribble? Please quote the rule and case play so I can settle an argument. Thank you very much. |
It is NOT a dribble. 4-15 Note 3. "It is a dribble when a player stands still and bounces the ball. It is not a dribble when a player stands still and holds the ball and touches it to the floor once or more than once."
The play is legal and nothing should be called. [Edited by Nevadaref on Jul 27th, 2004 at 01:10 AM] |
