Best Answer

When you have possession of the ball, jump in the air with both feet leaving the ground, and land with the ball still in your possession. That is you landed without shooting, passing, or without getting it stolen. You may however shoot, get blocked, and land, which results in a jump ball. It is usually called a travel.
