How valuable is a guy with all 80-85 cores (ATH, DEF, REB, BLK, LP) and less than 10 in everything else?

sounds good enough to me for everyone except maybe the top 5-10 teams trying to win a title

Even with a D baseline prestige, with my teams I would pass on him. I need speed, ballhandling and passing with my bigs, In addition with his 9 perimeter rating, all he probably can do is hit layups and dunk. However, it's possible he could be an extremely valuable defensive presence since you're playing zone. You're probably getting a Dikembe Mutombo type player with this guy. Speed is probably less of an issue playing zone at the center position.

I think I created a similar thread. This is a tough call really. How much does his lack of stamina, speed, perimeter shooting, ballhandling and passing affect the team when he's in the game? There's a lot to like about this guy, but will he fit in with the rest of the team in what you're trying to accomplish?

I started an almost identical player on a Sweet 16 team 2 seasons ago (as a FR). If you have the roster so that you don't have to rely on him to do too much, it can be done. Especially at a mid-major, he will more than serviceable against most mid-major centers. I'd actually say he will be able put up 8-12 pts as an upper classman, without losing efficiency, in that scenario.

Trenton He is valuable. Grab him. He is perfect at your C spot.

If I did not have this player at La Salle, the season would be disastrous.

Maybe I am asking him to score a bit too much, but he is able to put some points up.

it's all relative. i'm probably not taking that guy on a big six team with a lot of cash that i expect to be a top 25 caliber, deep NT-threat. but I would absolutely take him on a a rebuilding or midmajor team. he might not be a great starter (though zorzii's guy did pretty well in a decent league, albeit with more TOs than ideal), but at worst you're getting a RB machine off the bench, who can probably punish a lot of backups in your league with high ATH/LP.
