hey guys
can someone help and maybe update the BB help thread?

in this post it says (144856.13)

What do the draft balls translate into in terms of player salary and potential?

Salary
5 balls = $3,700 and higher
4 balls = $2,800 - $3,700
3 balls = $2,300 - $2,800
2 balls = $1,900 - $2,300
1 ball = $1,900 and lower

Potential
5 balls = 9 - 11 (MVP - All-time Great)
4 balls = 7 - 8 (Perennial Allstar - Superstar)
3 balls = 5 - 6 (Star - Allstar)
2 balls = 3 - 4 (6th Man - Starter)
1 ball = 0 - 2 (Announcer - Role Player)




whereas i think there is a potential misshap in terms of correlation of info

when you fully scout a player the columns write star rating/potential and grade rating.

my questions are:
1)the obvious one, is star rating correlated to salary?
2) if so, what does grade rating indicate? what is the difference between an A+ and A-.
does anyone have any idea in this regard because i did not find this info, even just estimates anywhere

I've also been looking for this kind of info recently. couldn't find any updates.

1) Yes, star rating is correlated with salary (skills)
2) A+ > A > A- as salary/player skills. A+ might not be the best everytime because too high RB or JS can boost player's salary. I look for PF > PG > SG > SF > C. SF's can have high JS and RB but they may lack a lot of other skills and still be high salary. C's probably doesn't have secondary skills.

That salary table is not correct right now, because BB's have changed salary formulas a lot since. They are a lot less.
