In this match (82341546) I´ve played SFDC and had three starters playing more minutes than I expected them to play.

On PG, SG and PF I have set reserve players (like A/B/A) and the minute distribution was 42/6.

I cannot remember it being that many minutes for a starter when I have set a reserve player. The starters have a stamina from 3 to 4, so that shouldn´t make them play nearly the whole game.

There are no guarantees on how many minutes a player will receive. Not a bug.

Thanks for the quick reply. I know there is no guarantee for the minutes. Though I think it´s not really perfect that a backup player gets 1 1/2 minutes of action in the first quarter, then sits on the bench until 1:26 left in the third quarter. While the starter has awful stamina...
I would expect these substitution patterns more from the reserve player.

If you don´t wanna call it a bug, maybe it´s still something worth looking at?

I'll keep it in mind when we start working on the next iteration of the GE but changes to such an essential part of the game like substitution logic are rare, to be honest.
