So, it might not be a "jump stop" to you, but it is to others.

The NCAA rule book definition of a jump stop (see Rule 4-44 below) does not include catching the ball and landing on 2 feet. Similarly, while the NFHS rule book does not include the term jump stop, rule 44-2-b.2 specifically states ...
if one foot foot is on the floor ...

The player may jump off that foot and simultaneously land on both.

This is the implicit NFHS definition of a jump stop and is totally consistent with the explicit NCAA definition.

NCAA Definition:

Section 44. Jump Stop
Art. 1. A jump stop is executed when a player catches the ball while moving
or dribbling with:
a. One foot on the playing court, jumps off that foot and lands
simultaneously on both feet (no pivot foot).
80 RULE 4 / DEFINITIONS
b. Two feet off the playing court, lands on one foot, jumps off that foot
and lands simultaneously on both feet (no pivot foot).
Art. 2. A jump stop may also be executed when the dribbler has one foot on
the playing court, initiates a jump off that foot, ends the dribble with both
feet off the playing court and lands simultaneously on both feet (either foot
can be established as the pivot foot).
