Take Wemby for example, scouts are saying he's going to be a ATG but he might get to the NBA and only be a MVP potential player (equivalent to a regular NBA all star?)
Wemby has an all-time great potential for sure :P
But he surely has a bigger injury prone risk given his body, which is why some still doubt him.

I'm not saying i doubt him. I can't say I've seen enough of him to make a true opinion. But that was just my example.

Maybe another example could be Andrew Wiggins. He was going to be the 'Canadian Jordan' and drafted number 1 in 2014, now 8 seasons later and he's not reached that potential and never really had major injuries.

I get your point, but here in bb you realize full player potential right after the draft, while in real life this can take many seasons. So overall I dont like your comparison to real life, because I think this aspect just can't be (nor is it necessary to me) modelled to the game without major changes.

I see what you mean. BUT
I think everyone can see that someone Like LeBron or Wemby has hall off fame/all time great potential even before the draft. The thing is can he fullfill his potential and that is more of a problem with someone like Andrew Wiggins or maybe even better gregg oden.
The potential is there they just didn't develop it well enough. That is what happens here in BB as well sometimes when people stop training.
