Hell no, you don't wait on him.

Doesn't he have 4 other players that can occupy those two spots?????

You give a reasonable opportunity to get two players in the spot. If they continue to delay, you whistle the T.

Well, then you've screwed up. I wouldn't call the T because the FT hasn't been delayed. But I probably would call a violaion if the FT is missed.
