Yes - 2-11-11 - this is a bookkeeping mistake. No matter who we say committed the foul, only one player actually did (especially in this case where we know green 51 couldn't have done it!)
NCAA has the same rule - correct a bookkeeping mistake before approving the final score (2-11.12) - and I've had a few games where an official will report a foul on one player, and then come back over to the table at the next media timeout and say it was really on a different player. Change the book, move on, and hope it's not the player's 5th.
