JR -- That play deals with a substition error (A5 left in the mistaken belief that a sub had replaced A5).
The play in this thread deals with a TO. It *might* be a different situation.
iirc (I don't have the books handy), there's a play where B is not ready to play after the TO. The officials use the resumption-of-play procedure and give A the ball. Then, 4 B players return to the court. The 5th either stays on the bench or comes in later (I forget). In this situation, it's an immediate T -- once the team returns, all must return at approximately the same time.
One could ask whether the NFHS intends for the two situations to be treated differently.
