But, they want to approach the coach and give him an option that he might be agreeable to, as they are sure that he won't want to give up a timeout or allow an easy basket.

Would it be allowable to have her take the court, and then have a substitute come in prior to the tip?
When I was a senior in high school, we had a similar situation. One kid was injured for the whole year so for senior night, they wanted to honor his contribution to the basketball program. They announced him as a starter, and actually had him do a ceremonial jump ball.

Nice gesture.
