2:31 and 3:06 are travels, cant dribble after landing the second step 5:16 is also a travel. After catching the ball, both feet is on the floor. He lifts his left foot, which makes the right foot the pivot
You can absolutely dribble after landing your second step. The ball just has to leave your hand before your pivot (step 1) leaves the floor. On the first one (cross step) he gets it out on time. Hands weren't quick enough on the second one. Most players will get rung up more often than not on the open step. I would call the move at 5:01 a travel as well. The gather is intended to prevent injury by not forcing players to stop on a dime at full speed. The wording in the rule is one foot down on the catch while progressing or something like that. No way you can ever convince me that a guy posting up is progressing.

@@wat4504 the videos that fiba produces explaining what is and isn't a travel contradict this, specifically the DeAndre Jordan double gather. When receiving the ball while progressing and one foot on the floor, the next foot to contact (step one) becomes the pivot. The only way to travel is to release the pivot before the ball leaving the hand. Completing the second step is merely your non pivot returning to the floor

You are right, It is illegal. Read Article 25.2.1 of FIBA official basketball rules (July 2023). - To pass or shoot for a goal, the player may jump of a pivot foot but, but neither foot may be returned to the court before the ball is released from the hand(s)
why is 3:05 illegal? He does 2 steps and then releases the ball BEFORE taking the third step. Similar with 5:00, where it is not explained, why it is illegal 7:00 also. i thought each foot counts individually, why is that legal?
QUESTION : From 0:46 to 0:56 Player caught the ball not when the the left foot was on the ground ( zero step in video 0:47) but when rigth foot was on the ground( 1 step in video 0:50) .So the If we consider that I catch the ball (REST) means 1) I catch it from below or 2) I catch it with both hands or 3) I grip it .Could it be the right foot ( 1 step in video 0:50) the 0 step? "After getting possession of the ball on the move (progressing) a player can now take two steps before stopping, shooting or passing . When the ball is gathered/received when one foot touching the floor (upon dribble or after pass while progressing), NEXT foot (AFTER gather) to touch the floor is first step -pivot foot." Αt some point, FIBA should allow people who love the sport to have access to video tutorials like those made by ordinary fans.
"At rest" means not moving, and the ball came to "rest" with his left foot on the floor, so that would be his gather step; it doesn't matter that he didn't have the ball in both hands until his right foot was on the floor since the ball wasn't moving throughout his spin.
@@wat4504 I already did in my original post and stop being so literal; his hand does not need to be under the ball for the ball to be considered "at rest." Therefore, his gather step is his left foot.

the example at 5:01 is completely contradicted by the last play on the video @ 8:13.... in the former the pivot has to stay down until the ball is released, in the latter, you can take 0,1,2 steps catching and running with the ball before the ball is released.
Good video, covers a lot of situations and indicates 0-1-2 steps and pivot foot. The one situation I don't understand (or agree with) is at 3:53, where the demonstrator lifts out of the corner, catches with an inside then outside stop, and the video says the pivot foot is the outside foot instead of the inside foot. This is not consistent with the situations at 3:29 and 5:00, where the footwork is the same yet the inside foot is the pivot foot. My understanding is that 0-1-2 does not apply in a stop situation, only while progressing.
Hi Eric, my take on it is that the 1-step is not necessarily the pivot foot. When both feet are on the floor, the pivot foot can be either the 0-step or the 1-step, which is determined by the other foot being lifted off the floor. For example in 3:53, both the left foot (0-step) and right foot (1-step) are on the floor; the lifting of the left foot determines the right foot to be the pivot foot, making the drive a legal move (ball must be released for a dribble before the pivot foot is lifted). Similarly, in 3:29, the opposite occurs: both the left foot (0-step) and right foot (1-step) are on the floor; now instead the right foot is lifted, which determines the left foot to be a pivot foot, making the drive a legal move (ball must be released for a dribble before the pivot foot is lifted). 5:00 is the perfect illustration to show an illegal version of this move. Both the left foot (0-step) and right foot (1-step) are on the floor; the player jab-steps with his right foot (1-step), lifting it off the floor, and hence determines his left foot (0-step) to be the pivot foot. On the drive, the player does not release the ball before lifting his pivot foot (determined to be his left foot), hence this is an illegal move. I hope this helps.
5:00 looked like he released the ball around the same the he lifted the pivot but if you slow replay, he lifted the pivot while pushing the ball down and it hasn't left his hands yet. I understand this is for educational purposes and tells us the technical reason but it was very hard to tell at first glance.
2:42 Before he starts to dribble, he takes 2 steps using his first step as pivot foot. I am confused with the FIBA rule "Pivot" and " a player shall release the ball to start his dribble before his second step. " Please help me to clear up my doubt, thank you.
When a progressing player comes to a stop, he may take two steps, which he does here. When he has stopped, and established a stationary pivot foot, he's no longer progressing. I think that's why the rule "a player shall release the ball to start his dribble before his second step" does not apply. Instead, we go back to rule "To start a dribble, the pivot foot may not be lifted before the ball is released from the hand(s)".
@@mijuraut You're correct about this: "dribble before lift" --> for stopped players "dribble before 2nd step" --> for moving players though if you already took your 2nd step, you cant dribble anymore
That rule applies when you're in motion If you release the ball before the 2nd step --> all good If you take the 2nd step first --> you must release the ball before the 3rd step (you can only pass or shoot, but not dribble)
@wat4504 I asked a FIBA referee, he told me that "If the player catch the ball with one foot on the floor and comes to a stop on his first step has both feet on the floor or they touch the floor simultaneously, he may pivot using either foot as his pivot foot. It is a legal move if he starts dribble before his pivot foot lifts from the floor."
2:36 it's not correct because • A player who catches the ball while he is progressing, or upon completion of a dribble, may take two steps in coming to a stop, passing or shooting the ball: ▬ If, after receiving the ball, a player shall release the ball to start his dribble before his second step. In video, he catches the ball while he is progeressing. So, when the second step occurs, he cannot dribble
It actually is correct, because there's a new definition of what actually is the *first* step. The first step that you're counting, doesn't count - it's the zero step, or the gather step. There's an addition in the FIBA rule book stating this, so you have to have that in mind. It's there since 2017.
Thank you! At 3:14 I see it IS a travel. The player has taken steps 0-1-2 then lifts pivot foot (1) before he releases the ball from his hand to begin his dribble. FIBA 2017 Rules Art 25.2.1 To start a dribble, the pivot foot may not be lifted before the ball is released from the hand(s). It's tricky to see and at normal speed I thought he'd released the ball first. Same at 4:45
I'm confused. Does releasing the ball mean that the ball is left from the hand? or the ball should be touched on the floor? I don't think I can recognize that is travel or not because actually happens so fast... lol
In this case, the 0 step doesn't count as a pivot, it's a gather allowed before the two steps. Thus there isn't a change in a pivot foot, since it wasn't established. A pivot foot is only established after one of the legs has been lifted, the other one becomes a pivot and can't be lifted. If he moved his right leg, then his left leg is the pivot foot and he can't move that way since you'd be right. However, remember that it goes 0,1,2 and here we only have 0,1. This make his right foot the pivot since there's only one more legal step, the right leg is the pivot and the left leg takes it '2' step in any direction it wants.
Basically the 0 is the gather, not established as a pivot yet. When you take the one-step, that gives the option for either foot to be a pivot since the rules define the pivot after one foot is lifted off the ground, making the other the pivot. Since both are on the floor, legally both should be able to become the pivot.
@@wat4504 The new rule indicates that the right foot is zero step and the left foot is first step (pivot foot) and then step the right(the second foot).
@@k10chen I know what u mean, but your mistaken When he catches the ball, two feet is on the ground He then slides his left foot, which makes right foot the pivot
Look at 5:16 His left foot is on the floor when he catches the ball. That is the 0-contact. Then the right foot is contact 1 and therefore his pivot. He lifts his pivot before the ball leaves his hand, therefore it is a travel.
I think in this situation he is catching on the move, so on the dribble the ball has to be out of his hand before step 2 touches the floor; it is not a stop situation where the ball has to be out of his hand before the pivot foot is lifted. I think he met either test though.
"Then the right foot is contact 1 and therefore his pivot" Stepping the contact 1 doesn't immediately make it the pivot. Lifting any foot makes the other foot the pivot But yes its still a travel
@@ericjohannsen6307 He slid his left foot and resteps it. Thats a non pivot action, and therefore he enters a pivot situation, so he must follow the "release before lift" rule
To clarify, this is a 0-1 situation, the left foot becomes the pivot foot when he lifts his right foot, and the ball is clearly out of his hand before lifting the left foot. The video gets it right.
In this example, the "step 1", the pivot, comes off the ground before he releases the ball to dribble, which is a violation. It is super close though and probably wouldn't be called, but it is technically illegal.
@@rjcarr316 doesn't the "step one" pivot foot can move wherever it wants as long as it doesn't touch the ground before the ball leaves tha hand? Or else 1:18 would be a travel too

@@onlyfacts3178 You clearly do no understand the changes that were made in 2018. What you are seeing as step 1-2-3 is actually Step 0-1-2: The "gather step" or step 0 isn't counted, so therefore it is only 2 steps. However, since you do not seem to want to believe me and my 30 years of officiating experience, you can read the travel rule here: www.fiba.basketball/documents/official-basketball-rules-yellow/2020.pdf Look at Article 25: Violations-traveling. Pay attention to Article 25.2.1. Here is a video that explains it quite well: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Se67lfUH-eg.html start at 8:08
@@fromtheoutside I was a ref in a FIBA minor league from 2001 till 2004. And the rules are the same. I dont need to pay attention or to read a rule that i applied several times. ITS BASIC, pay attention; STEPS only start counting when you gain control of the ball. (it doesnt matter if its 1 hand or 2 hand). When you are dribbling the ball you can take as many steps as you want. But when you are making the so called zero step you have not end your dribble yet, if you are moving forward and controlling the ball you are carrying the ball so you can only pass shoot or take 2 steps if you dribble again its called carrying violation. You cant be moving forward with the ball on your side because that means that you are controlling the ball even if you are not grabbing it with both hands or not even palming the ball, the TRAVELLING rules its mainly about the hands and the time you gain control of the ball. SO if you gain control of the ball you can only take 2 steps after that...and in the video he gains control of the ball and he puts 0,1,2 and then he makes another step which means he lifted his pivot foot and landed before the lay-up.
What about a 0 step with both feet on the ground? Or would a 0 step ever be counted in the air? As is this is probably the best video of this on RU-vid
"Or would a 0 step ever be counted in the air" There would be no foot on the floor so no, there wont be a 0 step while in the air "What about a 0 step with both feet on the ground?" what about it
@@wat4504 That is the one Tatum got rung up on in game 7 vs the Heat. Then Miller says Butler got away with the exact same move. Tatum caught with both feet up, landed L-R, then released the left before relasing the ball. Butler OTOH got his foot down which allowed him the extra step to establish the pivot. Looked way worse and was probably borederline.
He used the right foot as free foot. Thus left foot became pivot foot. So he should release the ball before taking the pivot foot off the floor. Its just my opinion
The player must release the ball before lifting his pivot foot, in this case his left foot. Otherwise, the player will br committing a traveling violation

1. His pivot foot doesn’t move until he shots 2. Ur allowed to do 2 steps in Basketball 3. As long as the pivot foot doesn’t move u still on ur first step
This is one of the most misunderstood rules of basketball. It isn't a travel to take your pivot (or "step 0") off the ground, but only a travel if the pivot touches the ground again before you pass or shoot.
This is the only one I disagree with (there was an earlier one called illegal but it was *really* close and didn't clearly illustrate the violation). They are calling this one a travel because the "step 1" is the pivot foot, and you can't lift your pivot before dribbling ("step 1" is doing the jab step here). However, in this case, there wasn't really a "step 0" or gather at all, so in this case "step 0" = "step 1", so you can pivot the 0 step.
A step-thru with the non-pivot foot is fine and the pivot foot can be lifted but not returned to the floor (think two-step regular layup); a step-thru with the pivot foot is not fine (see the situation at 1:49).
1:15 Will and allways remain a travel violation in my book.Lifting his pivot- right leg (no2) before making a hook shoot is illegal. The legal way would be if he jumped simultaneously with both feet into a hook shot, or a lay-up. Just watch Dejan Bodiroga, the guy used this move the whole career but never- ever i have seen him doing this travesty of a move like at 1:15.
Fortunately, this has never been a travel in FIBA: you have always been able to lift your pivot foot to pass or shoot, and the amount of space covered is immaterial just like there is no set number of steps allowed in between dribbles. The "legal" way you mention is covered between 6:30-8:00.
step through isn't and has never been a travel by rule. Good video on the controversy: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-l-Dx-zgjszU.htmlsi=q5GojySf1SNWRD29 but the key part is here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-l-Dx-zgjszU.htmlsi=q5GojySf1SNWRD29&t=194 trainer to carmelo says: "you actually can do that (step through) and multiple nba players do that [...] because you can pick up your pivot point you can't put it back down; you can pick it up to pass or shoot" But then another trainer says right after: "my philosophy is whenever the refs call a travel, it's a travel, whatever they don't call a travel, it's not a travel." from same vid: NBA rule, lifting pivot not a travel: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-l-Dx-zgjszU.htmlsi=mVijtYR-pm3IpWKF&t=348 Fiba rule: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-l-Dx-zgjszU.htmlsi=PT6ZLT-TC0qAAXz0&t=365 NCAA rule: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-l-Dx-zgjszU.htmlsi=QtsRssG-XavXyGCG&t=390 Short vid, but key rule: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vep698rc1dU.htmlsi=xxDhQhG4nuiIeBTL&t=39
@Don Pedro I think 2:42 it's illegal too. 25.2.1 A player who catches the ball while he is progressing, or upon completion of a dribble, may take two steps in coming to a stop, passing or shooting the ball: If, after receiving the ball, a player shall release the ball to start his dribble before his second step.
In both cases there is a 0-1-2 catch and stop, so step 1 is the pivot foot, and the ball has to be released before picking up the pivot foot, which happens at 2:42 but not 3:05. This is not starting a dribble while progressing, the player has stopped with both feet on the floor.
@Igor heres a simpler way of explaining it "you must release the ball to dribble before lifting the pivot foot" but both are still travels cuz you cant dribble after landing your 2nd step
you're not allowed to make 3 steps, but you're not allowed either to move pivot foot before dribble even though youre allowed to make 2 steps ? aka not the same thing
3 steps is travel. A zero step is literally taking a step. Although literally now means figuratively in the dictionary, so I am not sure anymore. The new travel rule is contradictory. The key subjective point is in the interpretation of the player being in motion. If the player has both feet on the ground when catching the ball "in motion", he may take 2 steps to stop. This is 4 steps with the ball, or 3 steps if one foot is on the ground when catching the ball. Therefore, if the question is posed to me; how many steps are you allowed in basketball? I have to answer with I just don't know??? This is quite difficult to defend OR impossible, since we never know how many steps a player will choose to take and players like lebron or the freak can run in from outside the 3-pt line and dunk it without dribbling. Nice work FIBA
Hi Noob, my take on the new rule is that the step-count doesn't start until the player has physical control of the ball (which is judgement call, but is usually determined by placing both hands on the ball, or letting it come to rest); so if the player has one foot on the ground and then receives the ball, that foot on the ground doesn't count as one of the two allowed steps (given the player hasn't yet taken a step since receiving the ball). So if a player in motion has both feet on the ground (per your example), both feet would be considered "0-steps", hence he is allowed a 1-2 step count in coming to a stop (and as an aside, would only be allowed to pivot with his 1-step as the pivot foot). I agree it would definitely e difficult to adjudicate these calls at actual game speed, which is likely why so many calls are missed in actual games.
@@chuckdollarama Yep. And if the player finishes on both feet at the same time, then they would choose their pivot foot and effectively take another step by pivoting. This would be 5 steps, which I saw a player do in a game I played in recently. The guy managed to get to the hoop and score from outside the 3-point line without taking a single dribble. The guy was not even 6ft tall. The rule was obviously brought in for the big NBA guys who have poor footwork such as lebron and players like harden have exploited it.
@@chuckdollarama No example I have seen shows a catch in motion with two feet on the floor, which makes sense to me - if you catch with both feet on the floor you are stopped, not progressing.
@@ericjohannsen6307 I wouldn't define being stopped as having both feet on the ground, given walking is a motion and would regularly have both feet on the ground.
No, not a travel. This is one of the most misunderstood rules even for people that play all the time. It isn't a travel to have the pivot ("step 1" in this case) come off the ground, it's a travel if it comes back down before you shoot or pass.

Sorry, but you should read the official rules as they've change a bit over time. I'm fairly certain all of these are correctly ruled, except for a one or two that are really close (basically, bad illustration of the violation).
