It really looks like a nerve disfunction. Poor boy.

Can TOS take over whole body?
I don't know are we just looking every single move he does and people do it normally, or he has super awkward twitches all the time?
2:25 - 2:27 , first leg than whole upper body ?!

I just don't get what's wrong with him.

And he looks kind of absent, epilepsy like ?

Did no one see a long a$$ condor wing messing with the back of his neck before he pulled away with his "spasm". If someone messes with you from 2 feet away I would have made that sammmmmmme motion... "Yo Mo … stop messing around". and the leg thing is nothing out of the normal as someone settles into position in my opionion. The narratives are really starting to make people see what they wanna.

fultz takes a lot of pressure from the management if people start asking questions of longevity, so you can be sure we'll pick up his option no matter what state he is in come that time. just the fact that he is a part of this roster, grants weltman extra credit the follow his very patient vision by letting him point his fingers towards a potential internal growth that can come from that side.

My prediction is the YIPS will continue and his jump shot will continue to be bad. He'll right in, another guy who cant shoot. However he will give us some energy off the bench thats a little bit better then what MCW gave us.

Don't know how you can watch all of his twitches and still think it's the yips... He clearly is injured. I wonder if the bike accident rumors are true. He was fine during summer league and was injured when he came back for training camp.

Yeah I feel like something had to have happened... it'll make for a good 30 for 30 one day.

Maybe he has some neurological issue whole life that got that much worst after alleged bike/moped fall
There are conditions like chorea with similar twitching ,but they are in general there from a early age.

The yips are involuntary wrist spasms that occur most commonly when golfers are trying to putt. However, the yips can also affect people who play other sports — such as cricket, darts and baseball.

Thats what hes got. I believe all this stuff about him not being able to lift his arm is a bunch of BS. His got the yips and is ashamed to admit it.

You really want to see him play Summer League...but I'd be pleasantly surprised if he does. His conditioning can't be good at this point.

Our front office isn't saying anything about it, but Markelle definitely needs to partake in training camp and preseason games in the Fall. Because WeHam will have to make a decision on that team option in October (and I think it's about $12 mill?), and that's cap space we could definitely use.

I think someone from mgmt has already come out and said Fultz won't be in SL, I feel like I heard them say it in the presser after the deadline maybe? Didn't really expect him to anyway.

We all want to keep expectations low, but these Hammond and Weltman interviews are so full of hype it amazes me. Maybe i am wrong but Weltman talks about him like future number one option of our team. He once said this is a high risk move, but then it was only positive stuff despite Fultz rehab going for so long( he even said Fultz outperfom his expectations). I dont know from where he gains his confidence

Look, a lot of that is being a good hype man as well for a kid that really needs the confidence.

I have no doubt that Fultz is getting along well with everyone, but at the end of it all he will have to get back on that court...sooner rather than later.

I'm just saying - behind the scenes - WeHam have this imaginary timer in the back of their hands that buzzes in October where a big decision will have to be made on Fultz.

I'm the opposite lol every time they talk about him my opinion gets lower. Mainly because every time they ask about his basketball ability currently they change the subject to how he works hard and is a nice young man. Yeah, we get it, but we didn't trade for him so he can open the door for people and help old ladies at the crosswalk.

edit: I get why they're doing it too, just saying as a fan it doesn't instill a bunch of confidence in me. Just my .02

Yeah but they dont say: we dont know what we have in him; he is still a huge risk; rehab is tricky. All they say is he is great, that he still has number 1 potential and rehab is going very well. From Weltman talk i get the idea Fultz is just rehabing from normal injury and thats all. Its weird with all that history.

This place is turing into WebMD. Any move this kid makes is under a damn microscope. Nobody knows whats actually happening with him, so just let it play out.

Too lazy to check but did Fultz play SL ball for the sixers?

I really dont think its the yips. I was watching an Oprah show with Barkley and MJ. Apparenty Barkley used to be a good golfer, until someone told him about his swing. And apparently in the driving range he would have a good swing, but in the course he’d suddenly have the yips. The yips with Fultz happens even in the practice court even. I really thinks its TOS. Someone should watch the TOS about Landry Fields in Youtube. Reminds me too much of fultz situation.
