In football, if the ready whistle is delayed, he must sit out one play.
In basketball, if play is stopped AND a coach or trainer is beckoned, the player must leave the game. If ANY player leaves the game, for injury or for illegal equipment or apparel, etc., he cannot re-enter before the next opportunity to substitute after the clock has been started properly.
A team timeout cannot buy the player back into the game in either sport.
