Since players are only the five team members who are legally in the game, everyone else in the gym is a nonplayer.
Any unsporting conduct out of someone who is part of one of the teams, such as a coach, manager, or stat person, would result in a technical foul against that team. Fans, spectators, or supporters in the crowd could also cost their team a T by their behavior, but it is quite rare. One such example was the crowd at the end of the St. Mary's vs. Gonzaga game. The home crowd stormed the court with 1.9 seconds still on the clock. This resulted in St. Mary's being charged with a technical foul.
