opening tip ?

jumper A1 taps the jump ball to begin the game...the ball is tapped fairly hard and it travels a distance toward A1's basket in the air without touching the floor or any non-jumper. A1 is then the first to contact the ball when he catches up to it by tapping it to the floor, beginning a dribble. I think this is a violation by A1, but I can't back it up with a rule reference. The rule says the jumper shall not catch the jump ball.
