If a player sustains a fairly significant injury (i.e.-one that requires the player to sit out multiple games) does it impact the ratings ceiling said player can achieve in various categories? For example, in HBD, if a player is injured, not only does the player sit out for the duration of the injury, but the player's projected maximum ratings are lowered sometimes to account for the "lingering effects" of the injury (a pitcher with an arm injury might see his ceiling for velocity drop or a position player with a leg injury could see his maximum speed projection adjusted downward, for instance), but I'm not sure if there's an equivalent line of thinking programmed into HD to where if a center misses games with a knee injury, his "maximum" rebound rating that he could achieve might slide from, say, an 89 down to an 86.

The reason I'm asking is I had a player here who, as a freshman, suffered a serious injury by HD standards (he basically had to sit the last 1/4-1/3 of the season and was only cleared to resume practice about the time of the CT). Unfortunately, I didn't keep my recruiting notes so I don't remember his potentials when I recruited him, but I noticed he's reached "limited upside" status in the Player Thoughts e-mail now at the start of his junior season in a variety of categories. Given where his overall rating is at and the fact that he lost a certain number of practices with the injury time, I can't imagine that he's maxed the potential categories he had when I first recruited him. Trying to figure out if I made a huge error in judgment, got the low end of the spectrum on multiple high potentials, or if the injury perhaps explains some of it....
