I don't think you should waste time on any of those players. As suggested earlier can you find a good trainee for a small sum.

I could not even get $1000 for my rather poor draft pick, still I would much rather train him then your candidates. And I am surely not advising you to buy my player. My point is only that you can for very small money buy something better to train. Your 24 year old players can surely benefit from the training he already has god so no reason to kick him out or sell him in my opinion but you train im too slowly to be worth it and he also has too poor rebounding for inside training and too poor jump range to be guard or small forward.

My player just an illustrative example on a player that in my opinion is better but still not someone I recommend you to train as you can find better players for a cheap sum.

Well..Im trying to understand the whole training thing as I havent really done it since I started playing this. I basically thought if you had a Star or above potential player at a young age and depending on his size and position..he will have pops. I guess Iv been wrong there. I try to buy star potential and up like MVP's. BUT, i did give up on a starter potential trainee last season and was told he wouldnt last in a more competitive league. AND he was awesome for me. I guess i need look more into TRAINING manuel as well to get a grasp at training. Thanks.

It is not a big difference in training efficiency between an 18 and 19 year old but in the long run will that difference still make a big difference. If you compare with even older players it will be an even bigger difference in the long term.

If you keep training your 23 year old player he will surely be better than a cheap draftee for the coming 3 seasons or so but after that his advantage right now will be upbeaten and he will not really improve at all despite some low skills.

Your other players has ok skills for training but thing is that you can always get a similar 18 year old player for basically no money so why train an older player then? My player that I posted was at most marginally worse than your own players but as they were older it should be more propriate to train my player. I will soon kick my player as he got no bids for 1000. You will certainly get better players than mine for small money so you can opt for better than him.

Im sorry but this guy is absolutely horrible. Get on the transfer list and find a better18 yo for less than 10k.
