Hi All,

So I promised a guy 25 minutes and a start, and so far he has only managed to stay on the floor 6 of 14 times for more than 25 minutes due to foul trouble.  I have him set to "very tired", and to be fair, he has a stamina of 69, I run a press/fastbreak (on normal tempo to try combat this problem).

Any suggestions to avoid losing this guy?  Maybe it's a huge mistake on my part, but I didn't think fouls would keep him from being able to do 25 per game.

25 mpg is tough for anyone on a FB/press team...I can only suggest practicing his conditioning and footwork and def IQ as much as possible, and maybe going to less than very tired, since he is fouling so much when he is exhausted.

Go to foul trouble only and/or more aggressive on foul settings. That is what I had to do. He just played 40 minutes last night.

I believe that when he fouls out, he does not mind not hitting the 25 minutes for THAT game as long as hits it for the others.
