I have two prospects in the upcoming draft
19yo 6'0" PG 5 ball star rating, 5 ball potential A rating
18yo 7'0" C 5 ball rating , 5 ball potential A- rating
I am probably looking to sell which one would gain more on the market? I am just wondering if the possible higher potential would overcome the age factor?

It will.

The 19 yo will definitely sell better in my opinion. However, whichever one you get is a great prospect and it's really not worth selling

Go for the 18 year old.

He will be worth a lot more than the 19 year old despite a slightly lower rating.

A 18 year old can have a whole season of training over the 19 year old so will fetch a lot more on the market

They both have 5 ball potential so its a no brainer. The 18 year old is the better option.

aw crap sorry I messed up the original post - the 18yo is only a 4 ball potential hence the question potential vs age...

so 18yo 4 ball potential vs 19yo 5 ball potential

i would still go with age, but now it get a close decision. A 19 hall of famer, is still worth a lot of money but if you just get an MVP the value decrease rapidly.

Both can make you quite a bit of money but the 18 yr old C is more likely to sell for big money.

Check the Suggestions they are important

Well in this instance you should get age: the difference in skill is going to be minimal, and PA still sells for a lot. The 18 year old would sell better.
