He is sitting 3rd in the draft order and first 2 are bots so he should at least get his top pick.

Positions mean almost nothing during the draft and 6'10 is quite tall for a SF (training guard skills will take a lot of time)
Since those 3 players are very similar i would pick the one with most assists in the box score ;)

Here is a tough choice.

18 5/4 A
19 5/5 A

Both similar height and position.
The 19 could be an all time great. The 18 could make the U21 team. This is hurting my little brain what should I do?

There was also a 5/5 A+ 18 in the draft but a team has forefitted the last 3 games to get him lol.

I agree with kilrtom, go the 18yo.

By the way, it looks like you will be 3rd pick anyway so go the 18 5/5, 18 5/4, 19 5/5. The choice may be out of your hands anyway, and you get the best of the rest.

It's not really a tough choice, you have to take the 18 year old. The 19 year old has already missed his fastest training season and you can't get that back.

If you're looking for a guard, you usually start scouting from 6' (since there's no sub six foot players in the draft, just on new teams). If you're looking for a big, you usually start scouting from the tallest down. The middle heights generally are only scouted by people scouting the entire draft, looking specifically for a SF or maybe because the group demonstration showed they're at 4/5 balls for current skill.

I probably used to think that way but now I realize that you need well-rounded players in this game and the ones that are in the 6'4" to 6"9" range are easier to cross train than the taller and shorter players. Even if you want to make them a PF or a PG.

I do realize that with many new users, they want a player that is quite tall or quite short because they don't cross train and they just want his primaries to pop quickly.
