How should I train this potential SG?

I'd get his passing up ASAP

Passing for PG for about 7 weeks (or until 8-10) and then after that I'd either go to 1v1 Guards (if you want a pure Guard, and it helps with elastic effect) or head onto ID (if you want a LI Guard, which in some cases is better but with the SB changes it's yet to be decided)


Then after you train what you want, I'd do some OD and finish with Jump Shot

First, I would train him in OD until he is proficient. This will keep him from being a defensive liability.
Secondly, I recommend training his PA to strong. This will help your team's offensive flow and cut down on turnovers a bit.
Next, I would give him some 1v1 Guards to bring his HA/DR up to strong-proficient.
If you feel like it, then I would also train JS Guards to proficient-prominent.

I believe it depends on how you run your system. What are you aiming for. A SG that can help an Inside focus offense (Look Inside) or an Outside Shooting guard who can score outside (Push the Ball)?

hey just also wanted to check if these 2 guys i started training have any shot at the U21 team, i don't think they do but figured it might as well be worth asking.

The first guy doesn't stand a chance due to his potential. As for the second guy, I don't want to say that he wouldn't make it either, but his OD, and especially his PA, are low. They would make nice team players, though.

thanks for answering, thats kinda what i figured but might as well ask.

Hello, does he have any chances to make it to U21?

Cheers !

Probably not. He is very tall for a guard meaning he is training slower than everyone else but if you make him a SF his inside skills are too low. I dont see him making the team.
