Does no one else think that at high levels this could be a strategy of an unscrupulous coach.

What happens in NCAA Division I basketball? I was quite sure they could not return.

Yes, a coach could use it to their advantage by having a player fake an injury, but no a player directed to leave the game for injury may return on the next opportunity to sub after the clock has run.
