Certainly seems like some kind of violation but "an illegal start of a dribble."? Same as double dribble in anybody's opinion? Wording seems tricky to me.

Presuming that A-1 has already used their dribble, this is an illegal start of a dribble. I was educated to this fact by NevadaRef during a discussion about the way to travel without the ball, there is only one.

It doesn't matter if A-1 used their dribble, you cannot start a dribble with your pivot foot of the florr.

I agree, it is a violation. But, what is the violation?
Are you gonna signal travelling on an illegal dribble, or illegal dribble on a traveling violation?
