Does potential effect salary?

I have two very similar players and the one with less skills, but higher potential makes more money.

No, I don't think so. What are the skills of your players?

Less skilled, more expensive player:

Player A
Point Guard
Weekly salary: $ 5 119
Age: 21
Potential: allstar

Jump Shot: average Jump Range: mediocre
Outside Def.: mediocre Handling: respectable
Driving: average Passing: respectable
Inside Shot: awful Inside Def.: inept
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: awful
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: proficient

Experience: awful

More skilled, lower salary player

Player B
Power Forward
Weekly salary: $ 4 228
Age: 19
Potential: starter

Jump Shot: average Jump Range: respectable
Outside Def.: mediocre Handling: mediocre
Driving: average Passing: respectable
Inside Shot: respectable Inside Def.: mediocre
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: average
Stamina: pitiful Free Throw: strong

Experience: pitiful


Player A has 1 level of handling, 3 levels of stamina and 1 level of FT better than player B. But he also has 2 levels of potential on player B.

Player B has 1 level of JR, 4 levels of IS, 1 level of ID, 3 levels of shot blocking on Player A.

I guess the other issue is that Player A is categorized as a PG while Player B is a PF. Maybe salary is also based on position and not just skills?

I think this can be it. Also, there is this thing with multi-skilled players having a lower salary, not sure if it applies here or even if it's true. But anyway, if potential really affected salary it should be easily noticeable on the transfer market, yet it's hard to see any difference in a MVP's and bench warmer’s salaries.

Does this mean we could see salary decreases??!! If you have an amazing monoskilled player that you gradually make more rounded will this lower his overall wage?

no i think he mean it that way, if you train a player monoskills he got more proficient skills, but he could have a lower wage then a player who got one sensationell skill.

Weekly salary: $ 13 610
DMI: 58300
Age: 19
Height: 6'2" / 188 cm
Potential: allstar *
Game Shape: strong

Jump Shot: proficient Jump Range: strong
Outside Def.: proficient Handling: proficient
Driving: proficient Passing: proficient
Inside Shot: awful Inside Def.: pitiful ↑
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: awful
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: strong


This is one of mine players i believe he is cheap ;)

But there is also an different whch skill he got high, i know a player who good in handling and driving enourmous skills(16 and 17!), but he just earned around 15k. If you have such skills in jumpshot our rebounding his salarie would be incredible.

No, I think what would happen is that his salary wouldn't increase by much as he became more well-rounded.

So it sounds like not all skills contribute to salary equally. Handling and driving are "less" expensive skills than "JS" or "rebounding". I wonder if that makes them less important in the game engine as well.
