We had a thread here earlier this year where a starter hit one of his own players for not giving him the ball. T was given to that player for fighting. He is obviously not an opponent.

I'd be more inclined to T the player fighting with someone in the stands. If two guys from the same team are going at it, I leave that alone.

Mark, please tell me you're joking! If anyone on a team throws a punch during a game, whether it be at an opposing player, coach, official, fan, or team mate - then they get tossed.
There are NO exceptions. To the best of my knowledge this applies at all levels of the game (and most other sports - excluding ice hockey, oh an boxing
).
If for nothing else, you have to toss them for unsportsmanlike conduct or "bringing the game into disrepute".
