The pivot foot is the foot that remains planted on the ground while a player is holding the ball. A player may pivot on this foot to change direction or position, but they cannot lift it off the ground and return it to the floor without dribbling the ball. If the pivot foot is lifted before dribbling or if the player travels by taking too many steps, it results in a traveling violation. Proper use of the pivot foot is essential for maintaining ball control and creating space.
