why are people saying no draftees? this matters more for developed youth. they get a second run at high potential that could turn them into superstars. draftees haven't used their potential yet. makes much less difference for them. all it does is make the class deeper

i have third projected and wouldn't use this on my draftee there in a million years. maybe on the guy i take at 18, but it should be obvious this would matter more for guys like lonzo and fox who are developed and can now get their potential restored.

so a 90+ potential rookie can go thru 1 TC and then get another 20 added to bring him back to over 90. mehhhhhhh not too many players even have multiple 90+ potential TCs big advantage to people have draft picks...which is bs but ill see my negative ass out of this thread I mean..... You're going to have a dominant big man in 24 YO Collins on a 7 year contract which you can use a +20 on. If he leaves worst case scenario, you'll have Winslow to use it on who is a very good player on a 5 year contract. I understand your point, but there is a very valid argument that this is better used on dominant young players w/ long term contracts rather than the situation you explained above. Also, with 4 teams carrying 2 picks each and 3 of them with a very good chance of all being in top 3, the more effective strategy would (IMO) to be to boost the mid lotto picks before TC and ride out the original POT on the studs.

You're not wrong that using it on developed guys has big time benefits, obviously fellas
But y'all crazy if you're dismissing the scenario play mentioned. It'd be different if it had to be used before TC, but if people here are thinking all their lotto picks are retaining 85-90+ potential after first TC, that's some pretty wishful thinking. I'd be stoked to use this on a top pick after first TC, essentially guaranteeing 1 TC with 100 potential after a TC with 85-100 potential already.
But I do hope you guys are right and no one does that

John Collins and Bam Adebayo owners are the ones who are going to benefit the most from this, ahead of anyone else.

Collins ratings have been the same for 2 straight TCs now. I doubt he has any potential left and I wouldn't waste a +20 on him because of that. None of my guys are gonna benefit from this.

Al Jefferson retained his 100 POT after the first TC if I am not mistaken?

Who cares about ratings. Let's compare Collins from this year to last and you're going to tell me there wasn't any improvement under the hood?

I wouldn't use it on guys late lotto or later. If I had a top 5 pick, unless I was absolutely certain this dude had 100 potential, I'd use it. Even if after TC he has 85-88 potential, I'll take only a +12-+15 to get him to 100. Easily. Just glancing at the draft, since I haven't paid much attention to it, there's prob 1 guy I wouldn't use it on, maybe 5 or 6 I think would be likely, and the rest I'd wait to see how their first TC goes. You guys can have a different opinion, that's okay too!
