We may have issues with the table by doing that, but I cannot see any justification for penalizing the substitute-now-player.

player was "at the table" and I guess I was thinking along the lines of:

SECTION 2 SUBSTITUTE TECHNICAL
A substitute shall not enter the court:
ART. 1 . . . Without reporting to the scorer.
ART. 2 . . . Without being beckoned by an official, except between quarters.
PENALTY: (Arts. 1, 2) Two free throws plus ball for division-line throw-in. One foul for either or both requirements. Penalized if discovered before the ball becomes live.
NOTE: A single flagrant technical foul or the second technical foul charged to a substitute results in disqualification of the offender to the team bench.


here it doesn't say that once "beckoned in by an official the requirement to report is waived and null and void..player still must report..

When an official beckons a subsitute into the game, the official's actions trumps all other rules with regard to the substitute reporting to the Scorer. The substitute cannot be penalized for not reporting to the Scorer before the official beckons him into the game.
