Leave the court 10-6-5
ART. 5
The head coach shall not permit team members to leave the bench area and/or playing court for an unauthorized reason.
PENALTY: (Art. 1) The official shall warn the head coach unless the offense is judged to be major, in which case a technical foul shall be ruled. (Section 6) Two free throws plus the ball for a division-line throw-in. The foul is charged directly to the head coach. (Arts. 3, 5) (Arts. 4, 5) Only one technical foul is charged regardless of the number of offenders.
According to this rule, a warning should be issued to the coach unless it is egregious. Can anyone give examples of when a player leaves the area that would warrant a warning and then examples of what would go right to the T and no further warnings allowed? In the past, this was just a tech to the player (I think) but now with the warning rule.....
