If you're hurt, you play.
If you're injured, you don't.
The other factors are:
Can playing make it worse or not? If not, you play.
Can short-term rest make it better? If yes, you rest, subject to the below.
Then there are the factors as to whether or not the game has meaning, i.e. out of the playoffs, or if there is someone better to take your place.
