What is the correlation between how many 'balls' of potential a draftee shows and his training potential - i.e. all-star, HOF, etc?

Three potential balls would equal what?

Your were close. Thought I should correct you though. Potential only goes up to 11, despite there being 12 potentials if that makes sense, that is why if you hover your mouse over a Superstar potential player it says 8 rather than 9. There is no such thing as a 12 potential player.

Potential
5 balls = 10 - 12 (MVP - All-time Great)
4 balls = 8 - 9 (Perennial Allstar - Superstar)
3 balls = 5 - 7 (Star - Allstar)
2 balls = 3 - 4 (6th Man - Starter)
1 ball = 1 - 2 (Announcer - Role Player)


Correction*

5 balls = Super Star (high) - All-time Great
4 balls = Allstar (high) - MVP (low)
3 balls = Starter (high) - Perennial Allstar (low)
....
And so on
