Has anyone scouted a player with more potential balls, than star rating balls?

People told me it's possible but I still haven't found anyone like that
I got 5/3 5/2 3/2 and one 3/3 guy

Search the TL for 18yos with less than $2k salary and MVP+ potential. Clearly they had less than 5 ball star rating judging by their salary, but they had 5-ball potential (MVP+). There are at least two such players on the TL right now.

i had some players with 4/5 , 4/4 and 2 players with 3/5 a few saisons ago.
i interviewed all the 4 ball-players and the 18 year old(plus right height) 3 ball-players cause i draftet in the last places.

and last draft i took an 19 yer old mvp who was at 2k salary. i think he would have had 3 balls (but i didn´t scout anyone in that draft)

Thanks for the answer. I heard it before, but haven't encountered such players yet.

Horrible draft so far btw, spent 28 point and haven't found anything..

Ouch, have you done either scouting combine or group demonstration?

Can anyone post the thresholds for A- / A / A+ in terms of rookie salaries ? Is it 3700-4000-4300 ?

Not anymore. That was under the old rookie salary formula. They changed it 2-3 seasons ago to bring it in line with the other salary formula changes that had been made. I don't know what it is now, but $3400 or so is A+.

That's horrible. I was thinking about it, and I may continue with the homegrown(all drafted) team next season. Since I haven't found anyone with high potential, I thought to at least get two A players and one B+ I scouted. I was hoping they could actually upgrade my roster LOL Thought they have 4k+ salary

I meant, I already have players about 3k salary, so the A guys won't be much of an improvement. Especially if they come with bad secondary skills. I may simply put them all down, and bring unscouted 18y olds on top of the draft order, maybe I nab an MVP...

You really shouldn't be interviewing 3 ball players. Stick to 5-ball, and when you're out of those, go for 4. The group demonstration helps out a lot but its too late for that
