Ya, you overpaid huge for this guy.

You can train JS JR OD HA DR up a bit, maybe to 4 each. That will keep is price down before hitting the big man skills. It will take some time with that height.

He'll never be a PF with those secondaries but he can still be a useful C.

I would say that if you have another guy who is taller than this guy, then I suggest you put your biggest guy as center, but if not then put him as a center. If he is the tallest guy on your team, than let him be center. From looking at how you described him, doesn't seem suitable for a PG or a SF. It would be smart to put him as C or PF. Make him get better on his inside shot, defense, and free throws.

Actually, he should put the player with better secondaries at PF and the one with better IS/ID/RB at C. Height has no effect in the game.

hey guys, i read all of the above and still couldn't decide how to train this guy.


Weekly salary: $ 3 745
Role: backup
(BuzzerBeta)

DMI: 16800
Age: 18
Height: 6'11" / 211 cm
Potential: perennial allstar
Game Shape: strong
Jump Shot: pitiful ↑ Jump Range: pitiful
Outside Def.: atrocious Handling: respectable
Driving: awful Passing: awful
Inside Shot: strong ↑ Inside Def.: average
Rebounding: respectable Shot Blocking: atrocious
Stamina: atrocious Free Throw: proficient

Experience: atrocious

i have him for 10 days now, and he seems like a nice catch for 13k.
i want him to be a nice PF/C for the 4th and 3rd class league, and ofcurse, i want to maintain his low salary for as long as i can.
i have another 20 years old trinee, but he has a bad potientia (starter) and a bit highier.
so i'm trying to dance on both weddings here.
last week i traind them IS, and i'm about to do so for a few weeks now.

i would be grateful for some advice.

as an overall advice, it would be better to train some skill for a few weeks in a row, or to change every week?

Like Wolph above me said, it makes almost no difference. However, I'd train the lowest skill first to level it up with other similar skills.

For example, if you had a guard like:

6, 5
3, 6
6, 5

I'd train OD to 6 first and then go after other skills.
