How would you guys train this player? I originally bought him as a PG prospect, but hes got such a balanced build that Im wondering if it would be worth it to turn him into a SF. It would be pretty easy to get him there and not many teams seem to have SFs as balanced as he would be. However 6'4" is borderline too small and a PG with those secondaries would be quite useful as well.

You don't have to decide right now what he's going to be. Making him a balanced SF will be tougher, since you have to train those inside skills on a 6'4'' guy. In any case, he can always be an outside-oriented SF. I would suggest giving him some 1on1 for forwards training. It boosts a few secondaries, including inside shot.

JS for SF/PF, play him as an SF for minutes purposes is one route. one on one for SF/PF would work too.

regardless of which role you select, IS is an important secondary IMO.

JS for SF/PF is not recommended. JS training is slower than with JS guards, and IS doesn't train fast enough to compensate. Besides, right now you're best off doing single-position training, like OD at PG (which it seems you've been doing), PA at PG, or IS/ID at C. You don't have other trainees who would benefit from two-position training like JS or REB.

So you guys suggest training is secondaries, because i have to do that at some point either way, but making him a PG in the long run?

If you train secondaries, he will be able to play SF especially at the D.IV/D.V level, but yes, long-term he's probably more of a point guard for a Look Inside offense (LI) rather than a pure SF.

Why not train JS what if he builds a team that plays outside instead of Look Inside. JS is as important as the others. I agree too much JS is a bad thing but too low is also.

It depends on the type of player he wants to build and will befeit his team.
