I do not put any of this on the C, he was across the court from the play. The new L should have seen the out of bounds pay on the sideline and had a good look (or should have had) at the clock. And I am not convinced he traveled, but clearly stepped out of bounds. Sometimes the right official is the only one that can make such a call like in this situation with the OP.
