TIme outs

[readingofficial]

Was watching a boys varsity game, team A's head coach gets ejected, in the third quarter. So assistant#1 step up as the head coach. Now to the senerio, team A has no time out left. Team A is down by 4 points with 6 seconds, team A hits a three point shoot and assistant#2 calls a timeout. Ref grants the timeout , then realizes that it was not the head coach(plus they had no timeouts) and said they can not have a timeout and put three seconds on the clock, and no T was given. Team A managed to get the game to OT, but ended up losing the game. The question is since head coach and players on the court are allowed to call timeouts. Can you give an assistant or player on the bench a T for calling a timeout, when the team does not have any timeouts left.
