Oh, By The Way, Red 23 Had His Fifth Foul Four Minutes Ago ...

A live ball went in the basket so the free throw counts.

A player is not disqualified until the coach is informed that the player is disqualified.

4-14-2: A player is officially disqualified and becomes bench personnel
when the coach is notified by an official.

A player could, technically, if the table screws up, not be disqualified and keep playing with six, or possibly seven, personal fouls. Said player could even score some points, possibly with some free throws. In fact, said player could make the first of two free throws and then it's discovered that he fouled out, and a substitute would take the second free throw, with the first one still being counted.

2-11-Note 2: The procedure if a player who has committed his/her fifth foul continues to play
because the scorer has failed to notify the official is as follows: As soon as the scorer
discovers the irregularity, the game horn should be sounded after, or as soon as, the
ball is in control of the offending team or is dead. The disqualified player must be
removed immediately. Any points which may have been scored while such player was
illegally in the game are counted. If other aspects of the error are correctable, the
procedure to be followed is included among the duties of the officials.
