It was originally called an intentional foul. The same result of number of FTs and point they put the ball was the same. I have a feeling that someone probably suggested the player should be ejected. So it really did not matter (game wise) what time they looked at the monitor before or after the FTs. I can only assume that someone mentioned this after the fact so they looked at the monitor to be sure.
