Yes, I plan on doing that with my other trainee!

I have my three trainees. Two of them I'm training as future PGs and one as a future SF

The 2nd and 3rd guy both need some JS/1v1, but the 3rd guy also needs OD and PA. He could be made into an SF, though.

Hi guys, just wanted to get your opinions on these two players, thought that this is the right time to ask since the season is still young:

Prospect #1: Regan Elizaga

Age: 20
Height: 6'4" / 193 cm
Potential: starter

Jump Shot: prominent Jump Range: proficient
Outside Def.: average Handling: strong
Driving: average Passing: mediocre
Inside Shot: inept Inside Def.: average
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: strong
Stamina: awful Free Throw: inept

Prospect #2: Gavienne Savillo

Age: 19
Height: 6'0" / 183 cm
Potential: star

Jump Shot: proficient Jump Range: proficient
Outside Def.: inept Handling: respectable
Driving: strong Passing: prominent
Inside Shot: strong Inside Def.: average
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: awful
Stamina: average Free Throw: pitiful

Prospect #1 lost a lot of training time last season due to a 5-week injury. Had to adjust my program to at least make my other players get some pops and not just Prospect #2. Now that he's back I'm planning to refocus on the two of them. Obviously they need more OD. I'd like Prospect #1 to be an SG while Prospect #2 is a PG.

And I'd also like to know your insights if any one of them can make the U21 team despite their low potentials?

They both also need 1v1 training. I'm not sure if they would make the Pilipinas U21 team. That's something you should ask your U21 manager.

Here are my 3 trainees:

Player 1: I plan on making him a PF with outside skills.

Player 2: I plan on making him a SF. He will be capped earlier than my other two trainees. He has no holes.

Player 3: I plan on making him a SF because his jump range and shot blocking are both low. He started as a PG at 6'11 which makes him a suitable candidate to develop into a strong SF.

They were all drafted. I plan to add a 4th draftee this season. So my plan is to train ID/OD for awhile until I get my 4th trainee where I will train some 2 position training. Any suggestions?

Could you throw in a little PA?

I'm trying to make him an SF for U21. Your thoughts?

i have a good trainee
he is shooting guard last season. this season he became a small forward? hows that happened? his skills and training that i did is all for SG

I don't know your country's cutoffs, but I think it will be difficult.

OD 4 will take a little while to get up into double digits. Then you have IS+ID+RB and at 6'4 they won't pop very fast.

That doesn't mean you have to play him at SF. It only means that BB's salary formula thought his best position for now would be at SF. Maybe some of his inside skills are higher than other guards. What is his IS/ID/REB?
