In the third-quarter free-throw footage, you can plainly see him sitting at the end of the home bench, kind of like a fake assistant coach.
I'm not sure if this makes the whole situation slightly better or slightly worse. Is it better/worse that he was actual bench personnel rather than a fan from the stands? I honestly don't have an answer.

Freeze it at the 0:28 mark and you can see the guy at the table. After the mic was removed he left the table to sit on the bench for some parts of the 3Qtr...just saying, he may be a parent, too. I know that he is not on the coaching staff.
