but he doesn't have a pivot foot yet;)
That is why I cited the one below since it shows that it always is a violation regardless of having a pivot foot or not
And I have got confirmed that it is a violation btw (got a response to my mail)
But yes both quotes applies

I'd be very surprised to see a basketball player jumping off both feet simultaneously. ;) That happens in gymnastics, not in basketball.

Anyway, one of the feet is the pivot foot. If the player jumps, it doesn't matter which one was. I don't know the wording in NFHS rules, but for NCAA it is almost the same as for FIBA.

I did it a lot when I was playing...
But it doesn't really matter since we agree this is a violation

That's why you're an official, I guess. ;)

It happens more often than a player landing on both feet simultaneously.

A player with the ball moving for a jump shot?

That is part of why I am an official xD
and the fact I thought playing basketball at the adult level was boring...
And the fact that I earn a LOT more money from being a ref than I did from playing;)
And a few more reasons ontop of that
But I don't think this is quite as rare as you make it sound... But then again, does it really matter since we agree on the rule?
