Well at that level, yes the difference is large. But the more you train both players the smaller that gap will seem. With the two players head to head, yeah the 18 yo is going to win that matchup. But in terms of putting together a team, The difference between those two players, once trained, wont ever be the difference between you promoting or not.

i drafted 18 year old and 19 year old pg's 5 seasons ago, training them together. their skillgap used to be 8 skillpoints, now it is 2:D so age actually has no significant effect, unless you planing to train for u-21. i also have to mention that 19 year old is higher too.

Age has a significant effect, in your case it was just overshadowed by another significant effect, height.

Are you honestly stating that you trained 2 PG in guard skills, got both of them the same training minutes every week and the 6'4 19 year old trained faster than the 6'0 18 yo?

Is it worth getting a 19 year old 5 star 5 potential player? I want to know if it is best to find an 18 year old instead despite those ratings.


guess the question is if u wat to train him or u want to make money. what about his boxscore? his height? of course he is worth training imo, if you just want to.

No, hes saying that he drafted the 19yo 6'4 and 18yo 6'0 guy at the same time, at that time they were 8 skills points difference, now it is only 2 skill difference, but the 19yo is still ahead by those 2 points.

At this point he is still a year younger and will easily have more skill points over the life of the player.

your assuming 100% activity in developing the 18 year old into a good player. This circumstance unfortunately does not occur often within the lower ranks, as people are not as interested in this game at times and either are off and on inactive, or are at least incorrect in development.

So while a veteran of 3-4 seasons that plans on really sticking around might learn how and correctly build the 18 year old up, it's not a forgone conclusion that everyone will, and therefore is mostly dependent on how much time the person is investing into this game.
