3 balls --> starter, star, allstar


I listed last year draftees to excel so I would see who I've got. I got a starter and I'm almost sure that he had 4 star potential. Unless he desided to change his position just after I picked him. ;)

I tried to track all good players from draft list compared to my excel, but it's difficult because you just know draftees position and age for sure.

Maybe I should check this again this year...

Thanks for advice.

There are many players that were scouted once. What does give a Star Rating without knowing other parameters? When guy has a 5 stars-balls can it indicate that he is a good choice, while having a good statistics?

I got 1 scouting of my 32 players and second scouting from 10 guys. From the 10 guys selected is one SG, A+, 4 stars-balls potential, but unfortunately 19 and has a very bad stats.
So, probably I would select some guys from the first scouting as a first choice.


Like I said statistic is very random, we can't even now in what kind of match he played. Of course 5 stars can indicate good choice, for me everyone lower than 5 star rating goes at the bottom of my list but 5 star rating doesn't indicated that he has higher potential.

Now if you like risking you can choose one scouted 5-star rating rookies as your first choice, but I think that SG is pretty good. I once took SF with same information 5star-grading, A+ 4star potential and he turned out to be very multiskilled.

what is the largest difference that you have seen between a players current rating and their potential? Right now I have a 1 ball, F rating but a 3 ball potential. Does anyone else have or seen say a 1 ball grade with a 4 or 5 ball potential?

Who would you rather pick between these too draftees?!

Star : Potential : Grade
5 : 5 : A-
5 : 3 : A+

One has a better potential while the other has better grade rating... Which is more important?! The grade rating or the potential?!

I'd go for potential... better trainee and you can sell him for triple the money if you don't plan on training that position

5, 5, A- is the go. I wish I can have a 5 ball potential prospects like you on my list but I am happy with a 5 star rating, 4 ball potential prospect on my list ..

1 ball --> crap
2 balls --> reserve, 6th man
3 balls --> starter, star, allstar
4 balls --> franchise, super-star, mvp? (some people said that the have seen mvps with 4 balls, i dont know for sure)
5 balls --> MVP (i know a 5 balls MVP), hall of famer, legend.

i got this list from GM Leyendinha, maybe it's helps you


I was looking for something like this for some time now. Thanks CrazyEyes and GM Leyendinha.
