Unless you start a dribble with the pivot foot up. This is a travel. The pivot foot need not come back down.

Is this a travel? What if he adjusted and made a pass to top of key. Assume foot on floor does not move. This was real play my crew has debated for a week now.
Why would it be a travel if he didn't put his pivot foot back down?

An OOB violation. (I noticed it originally, but decided to go with the OP's intended meaning)
