I personally spent...mayhaps too much money on scouting... but it paid off, because I have a ton of prospects and a solid draft position. 5/4 6'6 PG with A+ grade, a 4/4 C, 5/2 A- 19 PF , some mystery 5/? 6'6 SG w/ box of " 2-11 fg, 0-2, 2-3 ft, 1 or 2 tr, 1 assist, 3 to, 2 steal, 2 block, 0 fouls 6 pts" Not great seemingly? but probably a 2/3 for potential.
Then I didn't interview, but there are 2 guys that scored 30+ pts, and a 2/? , were "higher player #" so maybe solid potentials... but, the draft is deep enough with things I could use, hopefully the 6'6 PG guy comes my way. That I'm not complaining one way or the other.
D V is pretty much the bread and butter time for scouting and drafting I feel, unless you're having a horrible season, and avoiding relegation and know you should look at draft.
