Correct way to handle it?

Is it the officials responsibilty to make sure the players are lined up correctly? I said it was but I was told that its ultimately the responsibility of the players.
If noticed before ball is at disposal of thrower -- fix it.

If noticed before FT ends -- double violation.

If noticed after FT ends -- too late to penalize.
