I really don't know, you could lose big if you pick the 5 ball one and he ends up being 6th man, but say he's HoF and that's Jackpot for you. It's either safety and you pick the 4/3 guy or gambling and you pick the other one

Anyway if you're lucky you might even get the 2

player A rating 5 star, potential unknown, 18year, C, 6'10; 40 min 2/11FG 1/2 3FG 2 RB, 2 ast, 7 TO 2 STL 4 blk 4 fouls
player B rating 4 star, potential 3 balls ,18 year SF, 6'7, 40 min 7/16 FG, 2/2 3FG, 2RB, 3 ast, 1TO, 1 STL 4blk, 0 fouls


1. draftees should arrive next tuesday
2. I'd choose player B. Here's why... His 4 stars vs. 5 stars is nothing to worry about. It's a small difference when they start training. Potential 3 is minimum allstar so you'll be able to train him at least 3 seasons. So I wouldn't call 3 ball potential low. Next, the boxscore is absolutely better on player B. Notice bad shooting of player A and his 7 turnovers. One more thing in the boxscore - fouling. Player B - 0 fouls, player A - 4 fouls (both in 40 minutes). You won't have problems with training and giving adequate minutes to player B.

thank you.
I really hope player's B skills are very high because that would justify the lack of high potential. in all it's a SF, not a big man, so allstar potential might be just enough.

3 ball potential could end up with star or allstar potential. Both could be enough depending on what kind of player you want to train. Honestly, star is the bare min. I have trained a starter before and he topped out after a few seasons.

Why do they play 40 mins in that game? My draftees played 25 -30 mins. What does that mean? A hint for their stamina?

BTW, both TO and fouls are negative stuff, in case that player A have more fouls than player B, while player B have more TO than player A, which one would you choose? I always choose the player having less foul, as TO could be improved by training handling, am I correct?

Yeah maybe a hint for stamina, that's the most you can conclude about it

Fouls can be an indicator of an aggressive player, as well as TOs could be an indicator for bad handling, but could be an accident too, sometimes even players with good handling have several TOs (it's just one game, not an average over a season) and players who are not aggressive get fouled out
