Player management plan

Turn foul counts into a rotation plan

Compare current fouls, foul pace, planned minutes, matchup risk, and player importance before the next substitution window.

Usage notes

  • Projected fouls = current fouls + planned minutes x foul pace x matchup adjustment.
  • Risk combines fouls to spare, projected final fouls, period warning pressure, and player importance.
