What's his stamina level?

Also, why are you trying to play him 48 mpg against teams that you are beating by 30-40 points? Manage his minutes using subs and/or using him as a backup so that his gameshape is strong-proficient and he's going to be a considerably stronger player than he is right now with average gameshape. This will likely solve the fouling out issue too.

A different trainer doesn't change a player's performance.

Selling and buying new players doesn't solve your game shape problems if you continue with poor minutes management.

If he has atrocious outside defence and he gets pulled out to the perimeter quite a bit he will be prone to foul there. The stamina comments are also good ideas. Otherwise I would chalk this up to an overly aggressive player. Does he take a lot of FTs? If he gets to the line a lot this can also be a sign of a player with a high "agression" stat

Actually his game shape increased to respectable. I'm kinda strapped money wise I have 52k but will lose most of it to pay my bills. BTW: The reason I can beat teams by 30-40 teams is because of him playing 48 minutes. I actually had pretty good game shape until injuries and close games. Everyone except one back-up is respectable or better. I consider that pretty good true at one point they were between strong and proficient but for now I think respectable-strong is pretty good for a starting line-up.

My salary can only support 5 starting players, 2 back-ups and 2 trianees. So I usually don't have a back-up for my center. This off-season when I sell a trianee I should have a back-up then.

The trainer only influences weekly training. Other than that he has no influence in how players perform in games

It doesn't even matter on the tactics during the match, mainly on trainning. The only exception is when they have some skill regarding age or conditioning, but zero influence on any other aspect.-

The point is, you don't need to win games by 30-40 and you'd still be winning those games handily if you controlled his minutes.

Try playing him about 65-70 minutes a week instead of 90+ and he would be a significantly better player in the minutes he does play for you. That's just how game shape works. Many owners get sucked into thinking they need to play their stars 48 mpg every game but it just hurts the player and as the season progresses, your team. It's short term thinking.

Wow 56 FT attempts? Hopefully a lot of those were intentional!! (since it went to OT)
I foul a lot but never give up close to that many attempts. Say I have 25 fouls -- the other team probably shoots 35 FTs or less. Then again it's my PF/C's that foul & it seems to be the opposite for you. (your guards).

I think the bigger issue for most teams is having a star player foul out & having zero depth. If a team has 4 or 5 solid PF/C's, then it's not a huge loss if 1 or even 2 foul out on occasion.

For some reason my fouling has increased each season & I now lead my league.... I know there's the hidden aggressiveness attribute. But a few players have doubled their fouling since joining my team!! Like I have a player who averaged 0.8 fouls / 34 minutes before signing him. He increased to 3.1 fouls / 24 minutes on my team a couple seasons later. Another guy went from 2 to 4 fouls per 32 minutes.
