You do not see the ball clearly, which is one of the most important part of calling a travel. All angles are obstructed to some extent and it is a judgment if you feel that he has completely gathered the ball with a foot on the floor or in the air.

To me it has to be very obvious, not something we have to slow down to see.

Peace

The view from the back has the ball disappearing, I do not see clear possession from that angle until the right foot is down (hating that I cursed my eyes to this video in the first place).
