Its your choice whether you play him at scrimmages or league games. Just make sure he gets his 48 minutes or more at the position you want to train.

In my opinion it does make sense to work on skills for single position training first. This way you have to deal with only three trainees at most. Once they (or at least your main trainee) are strong enough you can switch to 2-pos-training.
I wouldn't recommend switching between center-training and PG-trainig, since some of your trainees are probably not future SFs. Also, your other players might end up playing out of position because their spot is taken by a trainee.

Only players which received minutes on trained position during the week will receive the training. So if you played your Shooting guard on C for 30 minutes and you are training Inside defense for C, your shooting guard will receive 30 minutes worth of training.

Most important thing with training is you have to ensure full 48 minutes to your trainee. Every lost minute lost, because 24 minutes of training does not equal 50% of 48 minutes, but much less (loss is progressive).

So if you want to make your Center better at outside defense, you have to switch to Pressure training for PG and give your C 48 minutes of playing time on PG spot in that week.

Only the position the player have during game counts.
"Weekly Stats" shows who played at what position and how many minutes. You need 48+ minutes to get full training effect.

So yes, you can place your PG to play C if you want to train his ID for example.
