Liam Guerrero, 6'7" SG
Ratings: EGEFPF (+5/-1)
I'll play him at SF so that The Duck of Death (6'5" senior Colin Duckett: EGGEFG, +7/0) can slide over to SG and unleash hell.

Keishaun Williams, 6'7" PF
Ratings: GGGGFF (+4/0)
Huge upgrade at the position where I had absolutely nothing of value.

Charles Dallas, 6'7" SF
Ratings: GFFGGF (+3/0)
Pursued him as a lock in case I didn't get Guerrero. Now I have both. A nice problem to have.

My starting center is fairly limited (PFGFPE, +3/-2) but he is 6'11" and I got some good play out of him this past season.

I'd play Liam at PG. Remind me of the order. Is he E at hands or shooting? And is the P in athleticism or intelligence? -- nm - David Jun 5, 11:14 4
- Order is Sht Def Hnd Reb Int Ath, so Liam ain't the sharpest but he can fill it up or dish it. - Barontronic Jun 5, 11:30 3
  - Yeah, I wouldn't like an idiot playing point, but you want an offensive specialist like that touching the ball as much as possible. -- nm - David Jun 5, 11:38 2
    - FWIW, I had the best success with size mismatches at guard. If you have anyone 6'5" to 6'8" who is +3 at shooting/hands, it's a mismatch. -- nm - David Jun 5, 11:39 1
      - Ok, you've convinced me to keep The Duck at SF and let Liam play SG like he did in HS. Duck's 2 in shorter but a better rebounder and athlete. - Barontronic Jun 5, 11:48
That’s a top 10 class? Wow. My 3 guys are +14/0 with at least +2 in 5 of the 6 grades. Athleticism is 0. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 5, 10:54 2
- Maybe high school stats come into it? Average GSc for my guys were 24.0, 19.1, and 17.6 -- nm - Barontronic Jun 5, 11:08 1
  - Okay, you get me there -- I'm about 53 combined. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 5, 11:08
