Assuming he did not slug him or foul him excessively it is just a common foul. A player in the game, even improperly, is still a player….normal rules apply.

If a player is disqualified and later checks back into the game and actually participates he is removed immediately when it is figured out. also, if it is simply a mistake (not sure how it would be) he is removed and no penalty. if it is deemed attempt to circumvent rules coach gets a T.

also, the timer blowing the horn does not mean the ball will become dead at the end of the free throw as another person suggested. an official would need to blow their whistle. officials can ignore the horn if they choose…thx
