Definitely. Just curious - what are your training plans for him? What level of trainer and doctor do you have? How many positions are you training?

Hopefully you will start a training rotation - rebounding is nice to have for a C but the other inside skills are also useful. ;-) Also, once you start to push one or two inside skills much higher than the others, training starts to become inefficient.

Hit me up by BB-mail if you would prefer to take this discussion in private.

So far this season I have only focused on training my 2 centers, the next two or three weeks will be Inside Defense, then shot blocking. I will probally spend a couple weeks after that doing free throws for the team. I have a level 4 trainer and a level 1 doctor.

I am glad to head that you will make him more rounded. My personal suggestion is to only do team training like free throws when you have trouble with your minutes (can't get your best trainees 48 minutes, or it is a week where you only have 2 games, for example).

Also, when you have the cash I suggest a better trainer and doctor. Level 4 is ok but any extra edge will be what differentiates your player from the rest. Something else to consider - with a level 1 doctor you have a chance of getting a 5 week injury - which could really set your player's development back. I think with a level 5 doctor the maximum injury time is 2 weeks (even those are rare) and most injuries heal immediately after the game.

are you sure there's a max injury time?
I read in some american forum that a guy got injured for 4 weeks and he apparently has a level 6 doctor with taping specialty.

The max injury time is 5 weeks but that's if you have a level 1 doctor (this one I know for sure).

I'm not 100% on the max injury time for the other levels but in my experience for a level 5 the max time is 2 weeks. I have seen a lot of injuries in my time and the most I have ever had is 2 weeks and even then I have trouble remembering the last time I had one.

Also, this is the way the injury system works: any time a player gets fouled, he has a chance of being injured. Where the doctor comes in is there is a function that reduces the length of the injury, based on the level of the doctor. A higher level doctor can even heal the player to the point where it is like he never got injured in the 1st place.

So, if 5 weeks is the max, I have a hard time believing that a level 6 doctor would only reduce the injury time to 4 weeks. But I suppose anything is possible.

Ok - here is the thing. Did the text say he was injured for 3 weeks or are you referring to the real life amount of time that it took for him to heal? Because 2 week injuries in BB can actually take 3 weeks to heal (do not ask me - it is the BB math).

Yes, the text said he was injured for 3 weeks. I think that you can get even longer injuries with better doctors, but they occur less frquently than if you had a low level doctor.
