Is the official correct? I think not.
Nor do I, but the official could be thinking quite narrowly about the rules and, technically, the rules would back him/her up since their judgment that another dribble had begun agrees with the definition of the start of a dribble. ;)

Palming ???
 
In my opinion, "Palming" could be considered a form of traveling, or an illegal (double) dribble, depending on how you view the violation.

Until a few years ago, it was technically either a double dribble or a travel, depending on which happened first. They added the palming designation recently.

the Palming designation has existed for years a number of years ago the signal was dropped from useage and the illegal dribble signal was used, just about two years ago it was brought back because it specifically addressed the violation that was again brought to the points of emphasis.
