So, this same player, in pregame while warming up with his JV buddies, sees you walk on the court. He's seen you before, so responds by saying to his teammates, "We're Fu@ked, this guy hates us."

Your call?

The "bench" if I have to...

So the other Coach says: "Hey ref, why are we not starting this half with two free throws for that kid dunking.'

"Well Coach, you see, it seems that that kid is a Varsity player and since this is only the JV game I can't T him."

Really???

"He's not playing in this game, Coach. I reported it to game management, and they're taking care of it."

"How many other fouls are you going to pass over to game management tonight?"

He's NOT IN THE GAME.

Again, you can invoke 2-8-1 if you'd like, and charge a team (not bench) technical foul, but I'm not going that route.

As soon as he joined the team during their warmups, he became a team member. It really is that simple.

In My Humble Opinion ...

Even if "he" was a hot, single, Mom, in a short skirt, and heels? What if the dunker was a fan from the opposing team, with, or without, some type of similar jersey on?

In my opinion, standing in the layup line does not make you a team member. I'm sure that there are some other valid reasons for charging the technical, or technicals (scorebook), but simply standing in the layup line and dunking is certainly not one of them.

If it is really is that simple there Yoda can you back it up with a rule and case reference?

So just charge the team technical for adding the name to the book, but don't penalize the team member for dunking? I'm not going that route.

No, sir. Just treat the dunker like a fan -- which he is -- and have game management deal with his removal.
