I was saying that because of his size, but youre right his skills are inside.

Yeah, definitely not a SF, due to the outside defense level.

Many teams will play a guard type player at SF, and in an outside oriented offense, your trainee is gonna get smoked. With his height and age you won't really have a chance to get him to a high enough OD level.

But as a PF he has some promise. I'd still say train OD and PA the rest of this year, and then consider a mix of those next season with inside training. Good PFs will need at least ok levels in both of those secondary skills.

This player has absolutely zero utility outside of the post and even there, his atrocious outside defense and passing will be detrimental. Train them to inept or so and then alternate between IS, ID and Rebounding then put him at C.

Yes, i completely agree, even though he's only 6'7, high doesn't play a role here. He could be a very good center. Get that Inside Def up, then work on either rebounding and inside shot next, nice potential center you have there. But Amarestars is right, he should really be a center, definitely more than a forward of any kind.

He is definitely not SF material. His OD and JS are absolutely horrible and he has holes that are very tough to fix. But as PF, he could be trained well. I would train his PAS to 4 and then some ID too.

Maybe I am the only one but to me he is actually not anything. He is 19, nearly 20 with very poor skills for his age. His height is great for a SF but his skills make that impossible. He has bad height for a C which is all that he can be. So what you have is a C with bad skills who will train slowly and whose only asset is the potential that he will never reach. Unless he is your draft pick I would sell him and buy someone better.

Atrocious OD is bad even for a C. I hate atrocious Free Throws, that will cost your team points every game forever and atrocious passing will kill your team every game. Sell!
