This is a minor point, but strictly speaking there were not two personal fouls. There was one personal foul and one technical foul which were both charged to this player. It is true that both fouls count towards that individual player's total of five fouls for disqualification and add to the team total.
Sometimes it is easier to put it into terms that the scorer understands even though it is not proper referee terminology.
