First, there isn't a 10-2-5f. Rule 10-2 only has two articles, unless something was left out of the online rule book.
Second, there's a case book play for this:
Quote:
10.3.2 SITUATION B:
After a lengthy substitution process involving multiple substitutions for both Team A and Team B, A5 goes to the bench and remains there, mistakenly believing he/she has been replaced. The ball is put in play even though Team A has only four players on the court. Team A is bringing the ball into A's frontcourt when the coach of Team A realizes they have only four players. The coach yells for A5 to return and he/she sprints directly onto the court and catches up with the play.
RULING: No technical foul is charged to A5. A5's return to the court was not deceitful, nor did it provide A5 an unfair positioning advantage on the court.
|
Part of the logic is A5 is still considered a player because he/she was never removed for a substitute. If you feel A5 was sitting out trying to hide that's something different.
