I am skeptical of a Fultz/Suggs pairing, but there's no reason to not experiment with it while the organization isn't concerned with winning games.

You never know what it may produce.

Was a really good listen... looking into the life of Fultz.

He has the qualities of a leader... or a great role model on the team. Will prove doubters wrong!

You've got to assume he'll return for a home game.
Milwaukee x2 and then Philly are then next three home games.
If he returns after the new year, then that'll be Philly.

If the team practices tomorrow, some of the injured guys could be back Sunday.

Fultz has a weird hesitation at the top of his release. Still rooting for him though.

I doubt he returns until Orlando secures top 3 losing record, that gives us a 14% chance to get the #1 pick!

Weltman has said, this season is about developing talent

He wants another top pick to go along with JI, Fultz and Franz.

I am also skeptic. But the Magic MUST learn if these two can play ball together, or not. Management cannot make next year's roster without an answer here.

If Fultz returns just after the Allstar break, then there is plenty of games to evaluate these to together.

What sucks in Fultz return is that Orlando's best player so far needs to go to the bench.

Interested to see his game after he comes back. More time to work on his shot.

I like Markelle & it’s cool to see other players are positive about his game, but he ain’t going back to the guy who played at Washington & Summer League. Better hope he can develop into a 15-17 PPG, 6-8 APG, 4-7 RPG type of player

I don't see why a player whose career has been stricken with injury ... can't regain form with opportunity and health at the age of 23. lol. P.s. Even if he only garnered those numbers... I would be happy.... But i think those numbers are more than achievable ... especially if he becomes the primary ballhandler with a decent usage rate

Fultz just entered health and safety protocols, so that may delay his return.

Absolutely...whole new team now. His role, if he's able to, will be as large as he wants.

Because he ain’t what he used to be. It’s not a knock on him, it’s just not the Fultz that was drafted #1.

I'm skeptical that he can regain his 3pter myself but do you know him personally to be able to definitely say that? If not, please send me some winning Florida lotto numbers asap :lol:
