Fair play is not the same as equal play. Expecting that all players receive perfectly equal court time is not realistic. Factors such as frequent stoppages, varying bench sizes, and the pace of a run‑time game make equal playing time impossible to guarantee. Coaches are expected to provide all players with meaningful playtime in every game. Holding coaches to play-time-equality is unreasonable.
