haha actually this is my 3rd or 4th season, its just a new account :P
but the whole time i was under the impression that when i get a player who i cannot train to his maximum potential,
it is better to sell him and buy another trainee who i can train to his maximum potential
this way not only do i get extra cash, i also do not lose the quality for my player
if im going for an nba example it would be like selling dwayne wade to get eric gordon + money

edit: unless of course i am totally wrong and that i am capable of training such a player to come close to his potential

You can, and with a player like that you could ask your NT coach for help and specific advice that would be great for that player.

Oh the irony, a team called Game Over has bid.

A quick comparason.


Unknown mystery player
Shooting Guard
Weekly salary: $ 5 692
Age: 18
Height: 6'1" / 185 cm
Potential: MVP

I just went through 18 Indian teams that will be going bot this week. Not one had a player close. There was not a single 18 or 19 year old on 18 teams with MVP potential with any salary. There was also not a single 18 or 19 year old with such a salary. You got both in an 18 year old.

Out of those 18 teams this was the best young prospect.

Dhrtimat Shrivastava (25488598)
Power Forward
Owner: roar!!!
Weekly salary: $ 2 719
Age: 18
Height: 6'8" / 203 cm
Potential: superstar

Really not close to your guy. The next best was a $4k 18 year old with star potential. 18 teams! None even close to your guy in any way.

Well the good news is now you have a lot of money and can certainly do a lot of things for your team. Enjoy it.

well ended up using 20k to keep him
not sure if that was a smart move but i mainly did it because i was not happy with the price he was selling for :/

I'd say it was a smart move. I assure you that 20k was not spent for nothing. If trained well that guy can be an amazing player. The cornerstone of your team. Get a trainer and start pumping...

i agree with IR 007. Look at my team for example with the two Dave's and the best part is you probably have more experience than i did starting off. By the way the merchandise boost you get is pretty significant

All true, but sadly I suspect that selling and rebuying the player removed the original team roster bonus with respect to merchandise. So he'll still get a boost because the player is from his the team's home country, but not the extra boost that a draftee/original player would.

The reason why I decided to trade him was because I know I do not have the financial capabilities to get him to his potential. So I thought selling him would be more beneficial.

That might be true. But having a real franchise player from you own starting team/draft can be rewarding too. My team is nearly full of "my" players and i get about 35% of their weekly salary as merchandise back. (ok my team isnt that great right now, but still the numbers count)

If you train him and you can climb up the leagues to at least III. maybe II. you still can afford him and he might be your personal star.
