Different penalties for 2 completely different situations.
So potentially could have violation (for being out of bounds illegally), then a technical foul afterwards if there is a delay returning in bounds?

In the situation I described, a member of the throw in team leaves illegally, returns in bounds a few seconds later to receive the throw in, the team is whistled for a throw in violation and they lost their alternating possession. Is that a correct ruling?
