Hopefully that formatted okay. These are projected values except for LP and ST where I show the current value and the potential. I've been leaning towards player A because of the rebounding advantage and the LP potential, but the poor stamina gives me pause. What do you think. D3, flex/press.

B all day long in press or man. Slight edge to A for zone.

B 100%. That ST is a huge difference

I would try to get both and hope A develop a high LP. But B all the time if I need to choose.

To elaborate a little: IMO, even if stamina was identical, B gets a solid edge in press, though it’s a bit closer. 30 points of ath/def > 30 points of rebounding in press. The elite blocking is a difference maker in zone, but an afterthought in press. The extra speed helps B in press more than the block deficit hurts.

If you're running press, player B based on ATH/SPD/ST, plus the fact that he has better DEF. FCPress needs high stamina to run successfully.

i agree with the folks mentioning the stamina as a reason its B by a mile for press (or man bc of the ath/def). that A guy will get like 13 points of stamina on average, as a cap, but likely will never get within say 3 of that cap. that puts him around 67 as a senior on average, which basically makes him a career backup aka useless for someone in your position (A+ prestige, title seeking etc). you could pray to get lucky, but i'm not really into that sort of thing for a team like yours.

i would take A in zone because sb and reb matter so much, even with his garbage stamina. if they had equal / decent stamina, it wouldn't really be close in a zone IMO. it does sort of depend in zone - seems like in that 2-3, there is a particular premium on shot blocking for the 5. i could see it being close for pfs and centers in the 3-2, but i'd still go with A.
