Target Skills @ 21 y/o:
JS ≥ 12
OD ≥ 12
HA ≥ 10
DR ≥ 10
IS ≥ 9
ID ≥ 9

* Inside Small Forward/ Inside Guard (SF/PF): Not a common build, but great to have one primarily for inside attacks. Main focus on OD and IS, but having good JS and ID helps for more flexibility.
Recommended Height: 6'6" to 6'8"
