Away-from-the-play fouls, as described in Rule 4, Section III (h) on page 18, are handled as follows: A personal foul and a team foul will be issued, as well as one free throw attempt. At the time of the personal foul, any player in the game may try a free throw. The fouled player is given the opportunity before the first break to come to the free-throw line or have a teammate take his place. If he does not, then he must leave the court for the remainder of the period without substitutions.
An example of an away from-play foul would be if a player is grabbed with both hands by another player while he is in the act of shooting a free throw. In this case, a personal foul and a team foul would be issued along with one free throw attempt. If the shot is missed, the player has the option of leaving the court or having a teammate replace him. He cannot remain on the court in any other manner except by the intervention of a referee or official.
If a player is held down in the penalty box for more than five seconds, it is a violation called a flagrant foul. In this case, a technical foul also is issued along with two free throw attempts. If the player makes both free throws, no further action is taken against him. If he misses either free throw, he must leave the court for the rest of the period without substitution.
