The RPP does not apply in this particular situation.

The citation about failing to return to the court at approximately the same time only applies to players getting onto the playing court, not subs coming into the gym. That is, if five players come running in, coach is there, players get the game underway just as subs are coming in the door, I don't think that citation is invoked. Although I could be wrong (it's happened once or twice).

You nailed this one. Atta boy, oops, I mean girl.
