| Remember that the DP/Flex must be declared when the line-up cards are handed in and become official. It can not be added later in the game. If you are playing with the DP/Flex, the coach may go down to 9 or back up to 10 as many times as wanted during the game. The only determining factor is that the coach must abide by the legal substitute rules.
