Looks like a future star PF for your team.

That's a great rookie. He can beccome an extraordinary PF or even SF. His Passing, Driving and Jump Shot will all need some work though. But I must admit I love his good defensive skills.

Im training IS this week, but yes a PF is a good idea.

any advice on how to train them together?

one season of OD, then one season of JR. Then mix passing with one on one. in 3 seasons you have great PF and great PG prospect

He is right there for a pop in IS, and i have 4 other guard trainees that i will get his js up 2-4 levels and JR up 1-2 (depending on where his sublevel is right now) levels. I have also toyed with the idea of more one on one training to get mainly the driving up a little higher. He's killing it for my team this season.

I am really enjoying training this well balanced gem of a rookie i got in my first draft. I like well balanced players and this guy fits the bill perfectly , he can play in both small forward and point guard positions very well and i would have no trouble slotting him in as a shooting guard if i really had to. I viualise my prospect turning out to be a jason kidd style explosive point guard who shoots exceptionalally from downtown.

Do the more experienced managers think that i am doing the right thing here or should i be utilising him in a different way? i would really like feedback here , thank you.

He'd better be a guard, atrocious IS aint' funny :(

Absolutely correct , which is why i have been leaning towards playing him as a point guard the last month or so , and i prefer to play run and gun if im experimenting in matches , thus not exposing his abysmal inside shooting. He has really been on fire the last few games though , albeit against some poor opposition , but a few games in the cup against decent d4 opposition , and in my last cup game against a much better team from the division above where i taught them a lesson in basketball.
