Dribbling Out of Bounds

A1 has the ball at his disposal for a designated spot throw in. Is it a violation if he dribbles the ball while looking for an open teammate?

7-6-2 says that the thrower shall release the ball on a pass directly onto the court....does that mean A1 can't dribble?

What is the definition of pass and what is the definition of a dribble?

There is your answer.

Peace

A player inbounding the ball may step on, but not over the line. During a designated spot throwin, the player inbounding the ball must keep one foot on or over the three-foot wide designated spot. An inbounding player is allowed to jump or move one or both feet. A player inbounding the ball may move backward as far as the five-second time limit or space allows. If player moves outside the three-foot wide designated spot it is a throwin violation, not traveling. In gymnasiums with limited space outside the sidelines and endlines, a defensive player may be asked to step back no more than three feet. A player inbounding the ball may “dribble” the ball on the out-of-bounds area prior to making a throwin.

The fundamentals also contain a hint.
