Not sure if there's a specific rule, I was hoping someone here would know for sure
Coaches have the peculiar habit of trusting in some strange and inexistent rules. Your words confirm that this habit is spread in all countries and with all rule sets.

It's legal to jump while having the ball (even in FIBA ) in order to shoot or pass. It's a foul to cause contact on a shooter or passer putting them at a disadvantage: isn't it a disadvantage to travel because of that illegal contact? Therefore the illegal contact is a foul, which happened before the travel.
