Just ignore the violation. Its like any other end of game delay tactic. See, for example, case play 9.3.3 which deals with similar violations for purpose of delay. I know this general theory is stated in a rule somewhere too and I will look for it. But I found the case play right away (related to running out of bounds to get a stoppage of time) and it states the general theory:
"Non-contact, away from the ball, illegal defensive violations specifically designed to stop the clock near the end of a period or take away a clear advantageous position by the offense should be temporarily ignored. The defensive team should not benefit from the tactic. If time is not a factor, the defense should be penalized with the violation or a technical foul for unsporting behavior. (10-1-8)."
I would use that same principal in your situation. Warn him once to knock it off. If he does it again, T him. It is clearly a non-contact, away from the ball illegal defensive violation designed to hinder what the offense is trying to do at the end of the game.
