This might help anybody asking that question, Jeff. It's new in the case book this year.
CASE BOOK PLAY 10.4.5 SITUATION A: ENTERING COURT DURING FIGHT:
Post players A1 and B1 begin punching each other and play is stopped. Two substitutes from each team leave the bench area and come onto the court. The four substitutes: (a)do not become involved in the fight; (b)all become involved in the fight; or (c)substitutes A6, A7 and B6 do not participate in the fight, but B7 becomes involved in the fight.
RULING: A1 and B1 are charged with flagrant fouls and are disqualified, but no free throws result from the double flagrant personal fouls. The four substitutes are charged with flagrant technical fouls and are disqualified. No free throws are awarded for the simultaneous technical fouls as the number committed and the penalty are the same for both teams. In (a), one technical foul is also charged indirectly to the head coach of each team. In (b), each head coach is charged indirectly with with two technical fouls(one for each bench player leaving the bench and getting involved in the fight). In (c), the Team A head coach is charged indirectly with one technical foul and the team B head coach is indirectly charged with two technical fouls(one for substitutes B6 and B7 leaving the bench, and one for B7 becoming involved in the fight). In all situations, the ball is put in play at the point of interruption.
