What do your scouts look like? I ask because, at age 26, this player should be at his full potential as players really don't grow beyond age 23, especially not that much.
I wonder if your scouts aren't very good, so that is their way of saying "we think he's at this level, but we really don't know, so maybe he's a lot better than that?"
Also, this guy is exceptionally mediocre. His corner ability isn't worth his inability to pass or shoot or play defense.
