Double-Dribble
Basically, you can't dribble with two hands. Once you start you're dribble and that second hand makes contact with the ball, whether it's for picking up your dribble, or on accident, your dribble is legally over. This is called a double-dribble and is a violation with the penalty being loss of the ball to the opposing team.
