Duke vs Elon - Administration of Dead ball Techincal Foul

More specifically the throw-in is at the division line on either side of the court. I always take it opposite unless the coach requests it to be tableside.

Same situation except Elon player fouled in act of shooting and then is deliberately tripped while ball is still in flight or rolling on rim. Is this 2 Personals on same Duke Player?

Well it was two fouls in this situation. And it would be in your hypothetical.

The first foul caused the ball to become dead. The second foul was during dead ball contact. That is why they shot 4 FTs in this situation.

In the case where there is a shot in flight the ball remains live until shot ends. The first foul doesn't cause the ball to become dead. Any and all fouls that occur before the ball is dead are personal fouls. So, yes, you'd have two personal fouls on one player. The 2nd one, if it is similar to this play, would be intentional.

Some might be inclined to call one, and I'd agree if they were both garden variety fouls. But if they are clearly two separate acts and one of them is egregious like this, I have no problem with penalizing both with one of them being intentional or flagrant.
