Coach B wants a technical foul called. Can't find anything in the Fed book about prescribed or prohibited activities during the time-out between quarters. What do you do? Does it make any difference if the player had been injured (i.e., sprained a finger, wrist, ankle) just before the end of the quarter and coach needed to know if he could continue?

Hmm...can't dunk a dead ball, that will earn you a T...generally we frown upon players shooting a dead ball, but it isn't a T, although I suppose you could issue a delay warning and then a T if it kept up...but this isn't "the" ball either, this presumably is just a ball off the rack. My gut would tell me that they cannot do it, and I would probably stop it, but I wouldn't assess a T b/c I don't know of a rule that allows me to...we'll see what others say...
