I think training him as a SF will be great as he got some good inside skills. I am afraid that his height won't help for guard training.

I think he is a good trainee. If he was on my team, I would consider two long term options. The first option would be to train him fairly exclusively at C/PF, and make him into an excellent big man. His lack of rebounding will slow this process down somewhat, but his other inside skills are high enough that I still think he could turn out well. A big man program is probably what I would go with.

The second option would be to develop him into a future star SF. To do this, you would want to raise all of his skills in a well balanced way. One way to do this would be to train him at PG/SG for a couple seasons, and then PF/C for a couple seasons (or vice versa). You could then finish his development by moving him to SF, and working on the skills that can be trained there effectively.

I think you should work out a training program that works best for your team as a whole, and then include this guy in it somehow. That's just my thoughts on him. :)

I totally agree with The Mogul. This player is so good, a 4,5 or 6 year training program would be the best idea. I would Train him as a SF too and also in the way The Mogul said. This player can really become a future super star. In my opinion you won the jackpot...

Thank you so much for you help guys!
