DEL Time: 04:27
 
Request For: Pro Basketball
Request Title: Training squads
Description
Is there anyway we could make it so we could move players back and forth from pro team to training squad? This would act sort of like the NBAs GLeague. Players are often shuffled back and forth to the G league, especially with an injury. This isnt anything dire, it is just something I think would make the game even better.

Admin Notes
I understand the request and agree it happens in real-life. But, from a coaching perspective, does it really matter which of the 12th and 13th best players on your roster are in the G-league vs. the NBA?
This is doable, probably without a ton of work, but would seem to add some complexity to the game. (Unlike in real-life, DEL doesn't really have undiscovered gems - all of the players' abilities are pretty much out in the open.)

With the 2way contracts, and all the movement between G league and NBA I think this makes for a needed change myself. Well an enhancement, change sounds a bit drastic lol

I was thinking that alternate simpler solution (or step 1 while a more comprehensive solution is in development) would be a window at the all-star break where you could make changes to your training squad. Or, at the trade deadline...or both. I don't think it needs to be an available option all season.

This would be particularly helpful for rebuilding teams. When I was rebuilding, I used only a 10-man rotation to preserve rookie status. Then I had to alternate seasons when players could go to training squad. It would have been great to give half seasons to two players to players to see how they perform.
