I was really surprised myself. I was sorely disappointed that he dropped that point less than a week after I picked him up for some depth but hopefully he'll maintain his shooting level for a while now. =)

I have had multiple players < 25y/o have a downward pop (outside of stamina). Driving (21y/o 5 to 4), handling (23 y/o 6 to 5) and rebounding (24 y/o 7 to 6). The next time I trained them, they popped back up, so there is a minimal decrease potential every week. There were no injuries or over playing in these situations that I remember.

I am positive. I remember my PG especially because he lost driving in the 4th week since I had the team, 3 seasons ago. I found it odd as I downward popped 2x in the same week (driving on the 21 y/o PG and stamina on 22 y/o C). I seem to remember being told in a BB Mail when I asked friend that there is the minor potential to lose abilities and the older you got, the greater the likelihood it would happen. And that I was unlucky. :D

I always thought it possible for any player to slip a little. But if that is not the case, I want the refund for my PG. ;)

Koz, I think he asked a friend via BB Mail, not a BB via... er, friend Mail.
