Right! So all those bench personnel people become players as soon as they come on the floor (legally) for the jump ball. They are players, not substitutes; so any technical for the illegal jersey will be a player technical and NOT charged indirectly to the head coach.

My point was the technical is one or the other, it cannot be both, can it?
You are correct, because a team member cannot be both a substitute AND a player. Therefore, any technical foul assessed to a team member must be EITHER a substitute technical OR a player technical.
