Is there any chance any of these guys are ready on opening night?

No

Fultz low. Suggs and Harris medium. JI who the f knows?

Fultz IMO has the best chance of playing the opener.

To the best of my knowledge, Harris hasn't even begun to practice since having surgery on 9.1. Isaac hasn't advanced to 5 on 5 work and Suggs is out 4-6 weeks on an injury that wasn't even a week ago.

They said Fultz would be out about a month back on 9/25. The season opener is 10/19. He should be close to returning within the first few games.

May answer the OP question:


He posted another one of JI shooting.

Harris' surgery has a 4-6 week timetable which would put it right at opening day. Suggs is just a sprain that can linger or be back to normal in a few days, really hard to guess, but considering the video of him practicing I'm guessing the later. You might be right about Fultz though, just a broken toe and it'll probably be close by then.

Fultz and Suggs will be back soon enough. It might not be opening night be it will be soon.

Harris will miss a bit of time.

Is Isaac even a member of this franchise anymore? Do we even care? We have Franz, Paolo and WCJ. I’m good.

Man i really hope fultz is ready for the opener, he was one of the guys i really wanted to see play live. Him Paolo and wagner are the only reasons im going haha

It's so frustrating that Fultz breaks his toe on the eve of training camp. It's just so typical of this team and these injury-prone players they've invested in so heavily. It seems like we're always playing teams who are at full strength while we are missing 3/5 of our starting lineup.

Suggs, Isaac, Harris, and Fultz are 4 out of our top 5 highest paid players.

Maybe not such a bad thing, Franz has been the PG so far.

I really want to see a healthy Fultz for a full season playing with this new front court. I really REALLY think the offense flows soooo much better with him out there.
I’ve stubbed my toe many a time and never felt anything past the first 10 or so minute. How does this stuff happen to our beloved franchise???

Anyone able to watch this?

The title of this thread is depressing!

Openinig night is in 5 days... so... No.

So, I drafted JI in fantasy, going with a long play. HE is listed as Day to Day on there. How? he hasen't played in over a year, no pre-season, but day to day.
I'm really hoping he's ready to go, and they've been running the lineup with Franz at the 2 to get everyone ready for his return.
