But it doesn't really SAY that in 3-3, does it?
The reason I ask is a situation I saw in a Varsity girls game the other night.
There had been a foul and the shooter had shot the first of two free throws when it was noticed that she was bleeding. The administering official called to the bench for a substitute. A player entered the court without stopping in front of the table and was called back by her coach who then inserted another player. (Who also did not stop in front of the table) The "beckoning signal" was not used for either player.
So, without the beckoning signal, the player becomes the substitute when the ball is administered to her at the free throw line?
