10-3-4: A player shall not grasp either basket.......dunk or stuff, or attempt to dunk or stuff a dead ball prior to or during the game....... This item applies to all team members.
4-34-2: Bench personnel are all individuals who are part of or affiliated with a team.
Look up a list of synonyms for the word affiliated and you may find, among others, "associated," and "in with." If a player is in uniform and participating in warmups with a group of similarly/identically dressed players, I would consider that player to be "associated" with that group, or "in with" that group, and thus, subject to rules and penalties which apply to other members of that group.
4-34-4: A team member is a member of bench personnel who is in uniform and is eligible to become a player.
If these guys are in uniform and participating in warmups with the team, they sound like team members to me.
