Who have you developed, and developed, and developed into your star that isn't a star prospect IRL.

I needed a cheap sg for my nuggets franchise. I picked up Mcants, really didnt know the guy but I know he played for timberwolves. I took a risk and started him at sg and he averaged 20ppg. Developed his defense and playmaking ability and hes pretty nice.

And the first guy I sign/trade for my backup position is Marcus Williams from Grizzlies. I have developed him into a nice pg for the last couple of years. Put some time into his jumpshot and defense and after a couple of years he averages 15ppg, 9-10 assist 4-5 rebounds when he becomes a starter. If your looking for a cheap pg, sign this guy. He is very consistent and even as a role player at 10-15 min per game he averages 5ppg, 2-3rebs, 3-4 asst.

Alonzo Gee from Spurs
Terrence Williams is a beast also.

Guy I havent had much luck on is Donte Green from the Kings.

I am very, very surprised he never worked out in Jew Jersey. I thought he was really going to excel when he got drafted there.

Honestly haven't developed him yet, and I just acquired him as an "throw in" on a trade for Big Ben Wallace but... Austin Daye keeps stealing minutes from the likes of RJ, McDyess, Splitter... etc. He has an interesting combo of size, shot blocking and a great stroke. I put him on Granger and sat RJ the other day to try and shut down Granger... Daye's size messes with alot of SFs. I can also use him at the 4 and 5 spots. His jumper is just smooth.

Gordon Hayward...the number 9 pick for the Jazz has been ballin for me in my online leagues. He has been a pleasant surprise and I have given him the green light when he comes of the bench for me....

Witness Gordon tear up the Magic, especially in the 3rd quarter of the game below....

Hey man how do you pull off that move at the 1:18 mark with AL

LS+LT to start the spin, then use the flick flick shots...which is LT, Right Stick Away, Let go of LT, then Finish the up and under with Right Stick away again.

Majority of my Wizards squad are no name guys.

PF-C: Sean Williams - acquired via a trade w/ the Nets. He plays hard off the bench and he's played solid minutes for my starting PF when he went down.
SF-PF: Austin Daye - Another backup that's had to step up recently because of injuries.
SF: Derrick Brown - I love this dude. He's quick & fast, plus he has the size at 6'8 227lbs to bang w/ some of the big guys. I call him the poor-man's Lebron. He was just sitting in FA and I took a chance and I'm glad I did.

But my favorite player on my team is
PF-C: Jason Thompson - acquired him via a trade w/ the Kings. I sent Arenas out there and got him along w/ a few other goodies. This guy is beastin out right now. He's my starting PF avg 18 and 8rpg. If you have a chance to get this guy, I say go for. He's young, athletic and has 2 yrs left on his contract. Build up his defense and you have a winner and a cornerstone of your team. He dropped 50 on the Timberwolves a few games back. Watching this kid play, in coach mode, was a joy.
