Question

The situation:

A1 goes in for a layup, B1 reaches out and briefly touches the ball while it's still in A1's hand, then pulls his hand back--all while A1 is still in the beginning of his upward motion toward the basket. A1 returns to the floor without releasing the ball.

My question:

In my judgement, B1 did not block the shot, rather A1, expecting that B1 would block the shot, gave up and returned to the floor with the ball. Had he not given up on it, he could have easily gotten the shot off. I called it a travel. Was I right or wrong?
