    You're a guard until you keep growing, not a forward. Make sure you keep practicing on your ball handling all the time. Also, make sure you listen to coach's instructions because they hate to repeat themselves when players aren't paying attention. Last, learn how to box out and rebound.

    well at 5'11, U can always be a point Guard.But depending on your team players heights, u may play as a small forward or shooting guard. But i will advice u train yourself more in ball handling and shooting.

    at 5'11 you will probably be a forward or center

    maybe even a small forward if you can handle the ball well

    so practice handling the ball really well

    at 5'11 you can take advantage of your height and play better defense(shot blocking)

    if you combine you height advantage with your mid range and long range shooting you can become a really good shooter

    at 5'11 you can try to play SG or SF depending on how tall your team is, but I bet you will be a SG.

    Learn to communicate with teammates on the floor, good leadership, good work ethics, and good attitude.
