Correction: He is not moving his pivot foot.

I repeat, he is not moving his pivot foot.

Everybody keeps saying "pivot foot THIS" and "pivot foot THAT." He did NOT move his pivot foot. He made his last dribble with his RIGHT FOOT, skipped, caught the ball and landed on his RIGHT FOOT (THIS IS NOW HIS PIVOT), and then took another step with his LEFT FOOT and shot the ball.

That is where you're wrong...the foot on the floor when the ball is caught, in all but one case (not this case), is, by definition, the pivot foot.

In fact, this case is a travel the moment his right foot comes back down...don't even have to wait for the left foot to touch.
