substituion other than the shooter

[lrucks1]

Had a JV game tonight where a team wanted to sub someone other than the shooter after the make on a second shot. Is this allowed? In my exp I normally have seen subs for the shooter but not for other personnel. The rule states you can make a substitution after the second make but isn't clear on exactly who you can sub

A substitute waiting at the table can sub for any of the 5 players on the floor. The reason why it's usually the shooter is because any other sub typically comes in before the final free throw.

So on the make if a coach sends a player to the table and they sound the horn they can legally sub that player interesting never knew that

And here's the rule to back it up

Made FT
Ball dead: check
Clock stopped: check
Sound the horn.

The after the make for the nonshooter is sometimes tactical--a team that wants to set up the press but not take out the shooter deliberately doesn't send the sub till the FT shooter has the ball.
