team subs free throw shooter question

Just looking for some examples when a team is allowed to pick the free throw shooter.
If a player who is supposed to shoot two free throws and can't because of injury who picks?

I was thinking back as a player and remember a couple of times when the opposing coach picked a player off our bench to shoot the free throws but I can't remember why.
If the free throw shooter gets a technical at the line before two fts or after the first shot, do you shoot the tech fts and then shoot the remainder fts or are they canceled? If the player got a tech before the free throws and it was his fifth foul would they still be shot and who picks the shooter. Same with a false double foul and if it was the shooters fifth foul but he has two shots to shoot.

--------- man, i hate fruitcake unless its done right.

NF rules - if a player is injured and cannot shoot his free throws, his substitute shoots, so that team's coach actually "picks" who shoots. As to your questions about sequence, fouls are always administered in the order in which they occurred.

The player who has accumulated five fouls must be removed immediately. His substitute attempts the FTs which he was due.

NBA has different rules and there are different situations where it is not the sub that is allowed to shoot FT's.

NFHS is easy anyone including subs can shoot T's- Sub always shooys for removed player as has been correctly cited

Just to add a quick caveat. It can only be an eligible sub; there are certain situations when a sub would not be eligible to come intot he game, so he/she cannot shoot free throws, even for a technical foul.

And what happens if the officials mistakenly allow the sub to enter and attempt the FTs?

Ineligible Subs

From Snaqwells: "It can only be an eligible sub; there are certain situations when a sub would not be eligible to come intot he game, so he/she cannot shoot free throws, even for a technical foul."

Snaqwells: Are you talking about the "Have to sit a tick, but don't have to play a tick" rule? Are there any other ineligible subs, besides the obvious disqualified, or ejected, bench personnel?

Yes, that's exactly what I'm talking about.
