I hate to say it but I think he's just a lost cause. He best shot would be SF however with his height mathematically you would want to train the bigmen skills first then switch to the guard skills but he is so bad outside I don't think it will be worth the time. I would just try and cash out and get yourself a new trainee.

After 9-10 Weeks of OD then what? He is then at the starting point of a decent trainee after wasting 70% of the season. If he is able to get any value from him its a much better call than pushing him to get to a starting point.

Yeah going to trash him. I realized this guy though lower potential is a much better trainee:


Age: 19
Height: 6'10" / 208 cm
Potential: role player
Jump Shot: pitiful
Jump Range: awful
Outside Def.: mediocre
Handling: awful
Driving: pitiful
Passing: atrocious
Inside Shot: respectable
Inside Def.: mediocre
Rebounding: respectable
Shot Blocking: inept
Stamina: awful
Free Throw: average

So I'm shifting my training to my big men, I have others that would train well with him.

With the surrounding skills. With it not being the beginning of the season by the time he gets 3-4 pops, and the current transfer market. I'd imagine he'd get the same / less in 5-6 weeks time.

He is a longer term prospect, but has more upside. CP shows a rapid salary increase for him.

Longer term as what? Salary increases doesnt mean a better player just that they will cost more. The reason he shows such a fast salary increase is if he is trained as a guard the rebounding he already has will be expensive. Not that thats a bad thing just personal preference. I would never pick up a guard prospect w/ anything lower than mediocre OD and thats an extreme stretch he has to be a god other than that weakness.

Thanks, still a complete noob here and am just trying to find a way to earn some cash to develop a better team. Long term I don't see either one of those players playing for my team, but maybe they can generate some income.
