dribble start with two hands
A player catches the ball with both hands and while driving to the basket pushes the floor with both hands, takes two steps and shoots. Is this a violation?

I do not know if the "two steps" was legal or illegal. Traveling is not dictated solely by how many steps a player takes. You would have to understand the concept of the pivot foot to know if it was traveling or not. NFHS Rules: 4-15 and 4-42 Z |

sorry I should have been clearer. It was not a travel I was concerned with since he shot a layup and I don't think travelled. It was the dribbling with two hands. I thought that if this wasn't double dribbling then it should be palming since, if it is a "dribble" then it is one where the ball certainly has "come to rest" since catching and throwing it down seems to be exercising an inappropriate amount of control.

Sorry but it is still not clearer.
Double dribble does not mean dribbling with two hands; it means you dribble a second time after ending your dribble. It can not be palming either if the player did not dribble again. Is it a travel? Was his pivot foot lifted and put back down before the ball was released on the shot? If so it is a travel. |
