Carrying (basketball)

Carrying is a rule violation in the game of basketball. It occurs when a player places a hand underneath the basketball while dribbling, pauses the dribble, and then resumes the dribble.

If a carrying violation occurs, it will count as a turnover and the opposing team will be in possession of the ball.[1][2]
