If he's slow to get up but is getting up, I'd withhold the whistle for the layup . If he's up after the basket I may even withhold the whistle then. If the coach needs him in the game and you blow the whistle, he has to leave for one clock tick. Let the coach buy some time with a TO if he need it. Having said that, it's ten year olds! Half the kids this age still cry when they get a booboo (I know, I have one.) If I see anything like an injury, I'd whistle it dead in less than a heartbeat.
