As long as, he begins with five and not end up with only left due to DQ's or Injury he can manage his team.

Actually, that's not true. By rule, if he has 5 eligible players who can play, he has to put 5 on the floor. As Snaq said, if he tells you one is injured, don't dispute him, and let him go with 4. But as far as him pulling a Norman Dale, nope. The rules require 5.
