Question

Had a supervisor give me what I believed to be an incorrect ruling this evening. Wanted to run it by you.

Traveling Violation.

On the way to the basket for a lay-up. While running, A1 picks up the dribble. Foot 1 is lifted and planted. Foot 2 is lifted and planted. Foot 1 is lifted and the ball is released for a shot before Foot 1 returns to the floor.

From my understanding of the rulebook, as soon as Foot 2 hits the ground without releasing the ball, we've got a traveling violation. The supervisor informed me there was a special provision that A1 was allowed to plant that second foot as long as they went up for a shot. I can find no such provision in the rulebook. Thoughts?

Thanks,

Brad
