I wouldnt be too high on Fultz early on because there's no clips yet of shooting tons of 3s. But nice to see that he looks to be on the right track

10 bucks says Fultz's first game will be announced 30 minutes prior to tip off (not Friday, just in general)

Idk...I’d expect them to Announce something, it’s a reason to generate buzz and sell seats. Scotty O won’t pass that up.

There's no way he's making his return in London against the Celtics.

Game versus Toronto makes more sense for Fultz' first game back. First, It is a home game, second, he has more time to practice, and lastly, marketing has more time to hype his return for ticket sales.

He played them once in Summer League, once in Preseason, and once in the reg season... Maybe everything is coming up Celtics for Fultz.

I would much rather him wait til the 15th.

All we need is to rush him back and hes' not be ready yet for the Celtics, and get 874 Celtics fans coming over here to talk nonsense about nothing.

FTs look pretty nice

Negrodamus · Post #1339 » by **Negrodamus** » Fri Jan 5, 2018 4:46 pm

Similar to the other videos, his jumpshot is still a bit confusing. He's shooting a lot of flat footed, all upper body free throws in these videos. Long story short, though, his shot is adjustable and leaps better than the beginning of the season, so I'm not terribly concerned about his longterm shooting ability. I think he will struggle with his shot for the rest of this year, but it's not a big deal.

Looks better than his college form. Very promising.
