During warm-ups, B3 is charged with a technical foul.

Team A's coach wants A5, who isn't a designated starter, to shoot the free throws.

A5 replaces A1 as a designated starter (allowed per 3-2-2a). A1 isn't allowed to enter the game until time has come off the clock.

Correct, incorrect, missing anything, or way off base?

Correct. One used to have to find this in the Simplified & Illustrated book, but this ruling was actually put into the Case Book in 2008-09 as 8.3

8.3 SITUATION:

A technical foul is issued prior to the start of the game and the
game begins with free throws. Non-starter, A6, is brought in to the game to attempt
the free throws and replaces starter A5. RULING: Legal substitute. The ball
becomes live to start the game when placed at A6’s disposal. A6 and A5 are subject
to proper substitution rules. A5 may not re-enter until the next opportunity to

substitute after the clock has been properly started. (3-2-2a; 3-3-4)
