I would not compare the NBA summer league with a local HS or youth league in any way. For the most part summer league rules are created by a coach. Coaches might think of how they want something to go, but they do not consider all the possibilities of the rules as an official unless they have some background on a rules committee. I am not sure what you are expecting?
I have worked multiple leagues and tournaments whether it is for pay or whether it was at a camp, all rules and variation of the rules were completely different. The NF or the NCAA does not have sectioned summer league rules and games played in my state are not under a uniformed set of rules for the summer. The rules are going to change based on the objective of each league or tournament and that usually falls at the feet of the tournament director (who is often a coach).
I am really not sure what you expect to happen in cases like this?
