Evan Fournier already working out 

Post#1 » by durden_tyler » Thu Apr 28, 2016 4:22 pm

... in the Philippines.

Ok maybe not exactly "working out". But this news has made the rounds in our local publications as we love our basketball and any NBA player showing that much love for the game while in the country will gain more fans.

P.S.

Fournier is in the country apparently early as now to check out our country before the FIBA Olympic Qualifiers in July. He's damn early, we're hoping he loses his shooting while checking out the beaches/bitches in the area :D

(Can anyone post Instagram pics or vids please?)

Good marketing ploy by his agent to have him put out a video this early of him working out.

I remember when Wiggins agent put out a picture of his vertical test the day when the other players were at the combine. This all wreaks of the same thing.

If that is a marketing ploy its the strangest strategy I have ever heard of -- biggest thing I was thinking when I watched that vid was that I hope he doesn't trip and tear his acl on that "court".

I don't think it's a marketing ploy. Evan always seemed to me as an adventurer & nature enthusiast. I just browsed his IG photos and I wasn't wrong.

Working on his passing and rebounding game. A lot of people will be happy about that.
