Not sure how to phrase this other than to say you're being a fool.

Sell your $30000 player and buy five $6000 players. Problem solved.

Since you're playing against bots, you don't need a $30000 player and with a bigger roster you can manage minutes. There isn't a single guy reading this that won't tell you that you're team will be far better with cheaper players with good gameshape then running everyone on the roster into the ground. There' s a very good reason why you never see a top team running out only 6-7 guys every week.

What are you training Sammons on right now as I see he plays PF most weeks? Thought he was going to get a full season of training his guard skills? Even at PF, he isn't getting any single position training at the big man skills? Seems odd.

I would assume one on one for forwards?

I wouldn't worry about him for now, he probably has no shot at making the U21 team. You'd have to wait for him to be 24 or 25 and see if he has a shot at the NT team.

When you say "done" I hope you just mean done for now, right?

Keep training DR.... mediocre is barely good enough for DIV III it results in like1.5-2 TOs a game/36 mins..... finish off handling and Driving if you can or get them to Respectable atleast this season and then focus on his primaries

I'd disagree with needing to train Driving now. My trainee Worley started out with atrocious driving and I didn't train it at all his first season. When I started training some One v One last season he popped pretty quickly, got three pops up to Inept. He's gotten one more and now sits at mediocre, by the end of the year he'll be Average. Good enough for the national team - probably not. But it's pretty easy to play him at PF and get some more pops in driving.

I would focus on the things that are hard - playing him at PG when you aren't in Div IV will be hard - work on his passing now. Then work on the stuff that really matters - his skills in the paint. If you do a couple weeks of One v One each season his driving and handling will come up over time.

Off topic: Can anyone explain what happens if you use Scouting combine and Group Demonstration for the draft.
