T/F Travelling

[Snake~eyes]

1) Travelling cannot be called without team control.

2) A player must have control of the ball to be called for travelling.

It is too early in the morning for a question like No. 1. But No. 2 is T.

If #2 is T, then #1 must also be T, since you can't have TC without first having PC.

Concerning 2) - A1 gains possesion while laying on the court, releases the ball, stands up, then picks the ball up. Travel. The travel is called when A1 has the ball, but the travelling action occurrs with A1 not having possession of the ball.

Possession and control are two different things.

In fact, A1 can not travel unless they're holding the ball with the exception of this one situation.

Certainly seems like some kind of violation but "an illegal start of a dribble."? Same as double dribble in anybody's opinion? Wording seems tricky to me.

I don't think this will display very nicely, but for amusement I searched for an old post on this same topic, seemingly one that appears every year, several times.

I agree with you Mr. Rust.
