Bench players minutes

[Ryan]

About how many minutes does your bench players (6th and 7th man) play a night when you sim in dynasty?I know their minutes can be erratic, but just like on average. I need to know for a mod that I am working on.

[Anthony15]

my 6th man plays around 20-25 min.

[JohnnyLi]

My entire bench usually plays around 24 minutes, but on any given night, one or two will play thirty (I sub my entire team between quarters unless they're extremely fatigued).

So about 24 to 30 min. to answer your question.

[Ryan]

Are you guys referring to when you sim the game or when you play?

[JohnnyLi]

Play.

doesnt it depend on the ratings of your bench players?

My starting lineup:

PG Iverson 87ovr
SG some guy i drafted 2 seasons ago sorensen 78
SF Iguodala 94
PF Bosh 96
C Andris Biedrins 85

Top Bench players:
Darko Milicic 78 (thank you assistant coaches lol)
PG Louis Williams 74
SG Themba Riggs 75 (rookie a season before)


Through 52 games, (i have played 5, 4th quarter alone with the rest of the season being simmed), minutes for my bench players per game:

Milicic 16.1 mpg
Williams 8.9 mpg
Riggs 12.4 mpg

So my main bench players get some good minutes, but i dont know if its different if lets say our bench was full of 68 ovr players

it will also depend on the sim quarter length.
