There was only 4 as a player went off. So there wouldn't of been more than 5 if she came onto the floor.
Actually, there are MORE than FIVE TEAM MEMBERS participating in this situation. The PLAYER who left the court for an unauthorized reason is still in the game. That PLAYER has never legally left the game. The team member/substitute who comes onto the floor during the live ball must also be considered to be participating even though her entry was not legal because she is physically on the floor and the ball is live. So if you add up your players and team members (see 4-34 for definitions) you get six.


In this thread, I just gave you the precise rules. You will have to decide for yourself whether or not you call it by-the-book. Tony has given you his opinion on that.
