Re: Markelle Fultz
I do not believe that a rookie would change his shot due to an injury. A rookie would look to get treatment for the injury. I do believe that a vet may change his shot because the injury is probably something resulting from years of wear that will never heal without several years of rest.

The entire thing is fishy, but everyone seems to have forgotten about it.

Nothing fishy. It's Sixers. No need to rush the guy. If anybody, they know very well what happens when you rush.

But they had 0 updates on him. We don't even get an official update about him. It wasn't until a Phoenix reporter showed a 10s clip of him before their game that we saw him at all before the evaluation. Fans were pissed that they had to get an update from a brief update from a Phoenix reporter. The day after that, Philly immediately releases an injury update, but it was vague and provided no timetable. Fans became even more pissed. Soon after, they released a 1min video of him in practice. I don't know about you, but this seems like they just released the later 2 to appease fans.
I know the public doesn't need to know anything, but the way they handle stuff is mysterious. Who do they need to hide Fultz from? It's not the NFL where teams heavily gameplan. Almost no transparency at all with that org. Remember, this all steams from that drama with Fultz's camp vs. the Sixers.
I'm glad he'll be on the floor soon.

Injuries aren't always black and white. They very well may not know what's wrong for sure. Nerve problems can be really tricky, because they don't show on an MRI. I've had something similar in my back, and after months of going to different specialists, they finally cauterized some nerves in my neck. It helped a little, but didn't fix the problem and they still don't know for sure what's wrong.
I've also suffered a severe shoulder injury before, and it could definately screw up a players shot. It almost sounds to me like the doctors don't know for sure what's wrong, and they're hoping time will heal it. Something's fishy, but I think that's more of Philly not telling the whole story. Just looking at his shot, I'm completely convinced he's had some sort of injury.
New York said Mitchell wasn't the guy you trade the sink for, then they traded it for Mikal, lol.

That must be even worse than a lingering injury. Basically, you can see that everything has gone down the drain but you've got no idea why and how to fix it. Hopefully he can find his form again and show everyone why he was so highly touted.

I can't say I'm surprised. It shocked me how many people were trying to say he was "injured" and used that as an excuse for his atrocious performances. Did people really think all the doctors who evaluated him were lying about him being healthy and cleared to play?
