Proposed deletion of Carrying (basketball) edit

 

The article Carrying (basketball) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Carrying is colloquial but I have not come across a rule book or ruleset that lists carry(ing) as a violation.

From what I've come across, the rulesets define the carry as the hand dropping below the basketball, but it only serves to stop a live dribble. If a player dribbles again after stopping his dribble, whether or not a carry is used to stop the dribble, a double dribble violation is called. If a player lifts his pivot foot after stopping his dribble and places it back down without shooting or passing the ball, whether or not a carry is used to stop the dribble, a traveling violation is called.

Suffice it to say there is no carry violation in the rule book.
