Michigan vs Illinois Player Losing Control of Ball (Video)

This isn't the play you're looking for. You can go about your business. Move along.

Looks to be an illegal dribble to me. The player touched the ball a second time during a dribble before it was permitted to contact the floor.

This wasn't a fumble because the ball didn't slip from the player's grasp. Note that for a fumble to occur a player must end his dribble. When the ball accidentally gets away from a dribbler without him first ending it, the result is an interrupted dribble.

Might be, but I'm not sure enough from either angle that he actually touched the dribble on its way up. It looks like he may have, but I can't tell for sure.

If I can't say with confidence that he hit it twice, then I'm not making the call.
