Boys varsity summer league. A1 is at the line to shoot the first of two shots. I am lead in two man. He misses and the ball bounces off the bracket right back at him. My partner waves subs in and A1 takes a "practice shot" while I am calling for the ball.
Since it was summer league, I just told him that if he wanted to practice, he should do it at halftime.
My question is - if this was a regular season sanctioned game, would you make a call here? If so, what? Certainly he is gaining an unfair advantage by practicing at that time, but is a technical warranted?
BTW - this does not come under the delay rule for warnings but could come under the technical foul rule for intentional delay.
