your 18 year old is 6'5" and your 24 year old is 6'0"
- you don't have a 22 year old on your roster? Sold him on?

Here is my guy:

Winston Hightower (12588489) Point Guard

Weekly salary: $ 12 150

DMI: 88500
Age: 20
Height: 6'6" / 198 cm
Potential: hall of famer
Game Shape: strong
Jump Shot: strong Jump Range: respectable
Outside Def.: wondrous Handling: proficient
Driving: respectable ↑ Passing: proficient
Inside Shot: atrocious Inside Def.: awful
Rebounding: pitiful Shot Blocking: respectable
Stamina: inept Free Throw: awful

Experience: awful

Thoughts? I am training passing right now. Goal is to get him to about prolific/sensationalish in passing and then probably some one on one.

The older guys might have been close to popping (Say 5.9 for example) Then went to 6.5 and then 7.2, or something like that. I have not noticed that my 22-year old especially is developing any more slowly than my 18 year old in any skill and they have been training hand in hand this whole season.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

Age: 20
Height: 7'3" / 221 cm

He recieved Skilltraining in 19 of possible 24 weeks. I wonder what happend if i chose him to be my maintrainee since week1... maybe its time to work on his shooting skills now... but i also like the idea of a defensive hustler.
anyway, still proud of this steal, and even getting more and more ;-)

Train him through next season and maybe even the next and he'll get pretty good with that HoF potential.


He can be trained for a lot longer than that.

Hmmmmm. It rather depends what division you are in.

lower and mid divisions can train 18 year olds but higher divisions should be looking to buy those trainees and take them to the next level
