If you have a travel then explain the rule he violated. He gathered the ball with one foot on the ground(his right foot). If he gathered the ball with one foot on floor he has 3 options:
1) he can remain standing on one foot (which he didn't)
2) He can jump off of this foot and land on 2 feet simultaneously( which he didn't )
3) He can step with other foot(his left foot), thus establishing pivot foot( foot that was first on ground when he caught ball, right foot) , he can then pick up pivot foot (which he did) but he must release ball with pass or shot(which he did).

You have to be able to explain using these rules to the core. These rules are well thought out and genius. Amazing how many people don't understand these. They just go by "it looks like a travel" .

Your initial premise is not a given. If the officials had called a travel and said the ball was gathered sooner, with the left foot down, I couldn't argue with that based on the video.

I did see a travel, but it was by the White player who attempted the three-point FGA that Blue rebounded just prior to flinging the ball toward Blue's basketball for the buzzer beater.

I was waiting for somebody to pick up on the "bunny hop" before the shot and the alleged travel.

Same here. The bunny hop was more of a concern to me than the kid who took the fling at the buzzer. We let too many shooters get away with that move.

No way this is a travel on 3 pointer. White team player 'catches ball with one foot (his left foot at :06 on video) , he then jumps off this foot and lands on 2 feet simultaneously.
