Excessive TO-Free Throws Too Early

Correct. Team A would still get the TO, and the "out of order" FTs would stand. B would get the ball at the POI.

This is interesting to me, because I think I remember a women's ruling where merited free throws were attempted, but because of some administrative problem, they're wiped out and attempted again.

If I'm remembering that correctly, then it strikes me as odd that the out of order free throws are allowed to stand in this case.

That was when a sub for a DQ'd player hadn't yet entered the game.

I disagreed with that interp (but will follow it).

I can see the difference between FTs that *must* be followed by a dead ball and FTs that *might* be followed by a live ball (as in the sub case)

Consider who writes those rulings.
