The play described below is provided for your review and discussion. The rulings given are based on NFHS rules. NCAA rulings may be different.
A1 catches a pass with his left foot on the floor. A1 then steps up to the three point line by moving both his right and his left foot a small amount.
Handle the situation.
This is a traveling violation. When A1 caught the pass with the left foot on the floor, that foot became the pivot foot when the right foot touched in a step. When A1 moved the left foot closer to the three point arc, this became a traveling violation.
