W1 received a pass from W2 with both feet in contact with the court, he then raised his right foot, hopped forward off his left foot with his right foot landing first followed by his left foot, AND then jumped off both feet to shot the three-point FGA. That is traveling.

I have white catching the ball while airborne.

Any competent basketball official will call that traveling because it was traveling. The first time I watched the play I watched in full size and I called it traveling the first time I saw it. I didn't call it by "feel", I called it because W1 traveled as defined in the rules, and I mean NFHS, NCAA, FIBA, and NBA/WNBA rules; try reading them sometime.

P.S. MTD, Jr., called it traveling too, the first time he saw it and this is only his sixth year of officiating.

In a game involving major D-I schools, I doubt this type of play is ever going to be called a travel if they viewed it the same way you did.

Come on. You are better official than that. Personally, the T was too close to the play and therefore did not have a good Vertical V look at W1's FGA.

Got to run (MTD, Jr., calls it a power stroll) and get ready to officiate two boys' 10U Elite games at 08:30am in the Toledo Park & Rec. league and then get ready to watch my Better Half's alma mater (The University of Toledo Rockets) do battle with the Utah State University Aggies in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl. Go Rockets!
