Very basic questions here, since I've never really cared much about the draft and now I have some points and wish to use them:

- what's the best/cheaper way to get to know the potential of a draftee? or it's not possible?
- do the 1-5 white balls actually mean something?

I think the rules on this subject are not extremely clear so I'd appreciate some help.

the former Bubbles Buzzer Beater (E.B.W.) created a video tutorial for Drafting and Scouting:

- what's the best/cheaper way to get to know the potential of a draftee? or it's not possible?

it really depends on your goal... if you after on a particular Height would be different from finding the best Draftee on the Group list.

- do the 1-5 white balls actually mean something?

It doesn't mean a thing.. but they influence every manager on how to strategize the scouting... they are different from manager to manager

I think the rules on this subject are not extremely clear so I'd appreciate some help.

there are already some forum post to help us:

plus the video tutorial that E.B.W. published on youtube too

White balls mean nothing, except that if you're lucky, all the high potential prospects would fall into group demonstration, and you will have their star rating revealed. If you're not (came across such a case before, I have two 5 ball potential players from group demo and further scouting, then found another hidden with 3 or more white balls), then you have to bet on spending more points to dig up high potential players.
