Congratulations! You just discovered one of the great features, the "Hulk-Gene". Only a few players have this marvelous ability, you can be proud of your player.

Sarcasm off: dump him and find a better one.

Actually i think those type pf players can be extremely valuable ones with the right skills. My 18 year old draftee tends to foul alot too, so i play him at C pozition for defence, seems like he fouls less there. Even while playing at pg he grabs like 3 offensive rebound average which is sick with his skills:D And i think after ill train some Sb to him hell be absolute dominating the pf as a lock down-defender.

Cheers Thanks for that, I'll try slowing down the offense and scout the opponents more. The guy has superstar potential so I don't want to give up on him yet.


No problem. If he's aggressive, there's not a whole lot you can do about that, but the slow offense should help some. Good luck!

Train defense. As his defense improves, his tendency to foul decreases. But his ability to draw fouls can be a valuable strategic tool once he is better developed.

Theoretically, players who are highly agressive should not only foul more but get more fouled. It could be nice to have a player drawing lots of fould, if not for two things: These players are so hard to train that it is improbable that he can reach a high level in skills (in comparison to a equal player with less agression) and the fact that it appears that injuries in this game are a random chance every time a player is fouled. If he is constantly fouled he has a bigger chance of injury which will further hinder the training. (Dont quote me on this, tough. I dont think any GM has confirmed that injuries happens ramdonly with a chance on each foul - it just appears to me that thats the way the game is)

I am with everyone who told you to sell this player ASAP. I gave up on training for a season because of one trainee like this. It screwed his training and my other trainees were not that great and I lost all motivation for training.

So, to avoid frustrations, drop this guy and better luck in your next trainee.

I tend to notice it in the number of free throws a player attempts. For aggressive players, they get to the line quite often.

The ability to draw fouls is a myth - no one has ever seen a correlation between aggressiveness and drawing fouls. Improved defence does not help either.

[expletive] waste of time to train such a player
