Well the NBA rule specifies that it isn't a technical foul (for >5 players on the floor or less than 5 on the court) until the ball becomes alive (ball is released on a free throw that will remain in play, throw-in is released, or jump ball is legally touched)...if it's caught before then, fix it and move on.
Now in a NFHS game, I could see passing on this if it's during a free throw(s) that will not remain in play and just correcting the issue.
