dribbling, def hits, travel?

[mutantducky]

sure this has been discussed before just can't find the right thread.


I had this last night when the defender hit the ball back into me and I think I sort of palmed the ball or briefly had it against my body and took a couple of steps. I was dribbling when the ball was hit. I sort of palmed the ball after it was hit but I don't think I had control of it. Or taking the palm part out after the defender hits the ball do I need control of the ball to be called for a travel? After taking a few steps and regaining control can I dribble again?


2nd random type question. Say like the first and somehow the ball goes into A1 shirt. B1 is the d player. Does play stop right then? Can you travel if the ball goes accidentally into a jersey and gets stuck. Sure there would be a limit on this as a player just wouldn't be able to run down the court
3. If someone does this on purpose is it a Tech or just a violation?
