If the FT is missed, give a substitute throw-in. If they still refuse to occupy the proper spot, place the ball at the disposal of the thrower. If this free throw is missed, a technical is administered for the delay.

9.1.2 SITUATION A

Following a time-out by Team B, A1 is given the ball for the first of two free throws even though Team B is still huddling at the bench and the first marked spaces on each side of the lane are not occupied. In this case, the lead official uses the resumption-of-play procedure even though the first spaces are not occupied, whereas in other cases, the spaces would have to be properly occupied before the official would proceed with the free throw administration. A1’s first attempt is successful. The lead official then bounces the ball to A1 for the second attempt. Team B is still at the sideline. The official again gives the signal which indicates a violation by Team B if the attempt is missed. A1 misses the second free-throw attempt. RULING: The violation will result in A1 being given a substitute attempt. Team B will be assessed a technical foul if they delay further by not occupying the first marked spaces on each side of the lane before the ball becomes live for the substitute throw. (4-38; 8-1-2; 10-1-5b)

Wrong rules citation. That case play only applies AFTER a charged timeout. In the situation brong discussed, there was no timeout.

See case book play 10.1.5SitC(b). It's exactly the same as the situation described. It's a "T" with no "delay of game" warning given. Mbyron was correct.
