The relevant rule is 4-14-2. A1 is not DQ'd until Coach A is notified of A1's fifth foul. A1 continues to be a player until that happens. So we have a player shooting FTs that he is entitled to (since he was the player that was fouled). There has been no error. The FTs stand, and the player is removed as soon as the mistake (not "error") is discovered.
Case 4.14.1C is the closest match, although the opponent is shooting the FTs. The FT that is already shot stands, then the DQ'd player is replaced and the game is resumed.

Case book play 2-10-4 suresasheck
is relevant. That case play talks about a
wrong player being allowed to shoot FT's. Player A is the
wrong player in the op.
How can case play 4.14.1C be relevant in any way, shape or form?
In that case play, the
DEFENDER fouled out,
NOT the
SHOOTER. Apples and oranges.
We're talking about a
wrong player being allowed to shoot FT's that he didn't really have coming because of disqualification, Chuck.
In the original post, player A was fouled. Player A also fouled out
before he could shoot the 2 FT's that he had coming. The replacement for player A is supposed to shoot both of A's original FT's. Ergo, if player A was allowed to shoot any FT's, he was the
wrong player to do so; his replacement was the
right player, by rule. Sez so right in rule 8-2-
"The freethrows awarded because of a personal foul shall be attempted by the offended player. If such player must withdraw because of an injury or disqualification, his/her substitute shall attempt the throw(s) unless no substitute is available". Iow, because a wrong player shot the FT's, as per R2-10-1(c), we have a correctable error. That correctable error was caught in time, as per R2-10-2. It was also supposed to be corrected as per R2-10-4, which states that any FT's taken by a wrong player are cancelled.
You and Nevada are trying to bring in rules that ain't really relevant to this sitch.
