Other Violations Traveling - is a violation of the rules that occurs when a player holding the ball moves one or both of his feet illegally. Most commonly, a player travels by illegally moving his pivot foot or taking too many steps without dribbling the ball Double Dribble - is a violation in which a player dribbles the ball, clearly holds it with a combination of either one or two hands (while either moving or stationary), and then proceeds to dribble again without first either attempting a field goal or passing off to a teammate. Double dribbling can also occur if a player tries to dribble using both hands at the same time. Carry - occurs when the dribbling player continues to dribble after allowing the ball to come to rest in one or both hands.

Rules Cont. Personal - a player foul that involves illegal contact with an opponent while the ball is live, which hinders an opponent from performing normal defensive and offensive movements. Technical - a foul by a non-player, a non-contact foul by a player; an intentional or flagrant contact foul while the ball is dead. Flagrant – a personal or technical foul of a violent or savage nature or a technical non- contact foul, which displays unacceptable conduct. Intentional – a personal or technical foul designed to stop or keep the clock from starting, to neutralize an opponent’s obvious advantageous position, and contact away from the ball or when not playing the ball.
