Saw this at an AAU tourney last weekend...A1 commits his 5th foul, which results in 2 shots for B1. B1 shoots the first FT and misses. It is then discovered that A1 has, in fact, fouled out. The officials (I'm 99.9% certain) erroneously replaced the disqualified player and then "re-did" the shot, awarding B1 2 free throws from that point. Their rationale was that if they allowed team A 30 seconds to replace the player, it would 'ice' the shooter. There was also some discussion that the first FT might have been a correctable error because it was awarded erroneously (a DQ'ed player was on the court). What should have been done here?
