If they aren't on the official roster then they are not players in the game. If the coach decides to leave them off it is not our job to decide why they aren't on the roster.

Sounds like the coach out foxed the officials & they decided to apply their own brand of justice.

Jer, check the final sentence of 10-3-4: "This item applies to all team members."

I didn't read all the postings, but, why were these players on the court when" all team members were warming up". Why not invite all the people in the stands to join their warm up. Their has to be some infraction fo some rule. Were the players in uniform. most team will not suit up players that are suspended or ineligible.

No just informing jer that there are no players before the game begins, so if we went by what he highlighted there would be no way to ever penalize anyone for a dunk during warmups. He is simply not correct to use the term players for this rule.
