I see a lot of comments mentioning Ben Simmons, so I’ll have you know that I also made a video covering his story: https://youtu.be/HK_qr0uri4I
It's the weight room. He needs to stop doing upper body lifts. I've seen this before.
The celtics did really like Jayson Tatum and wanted to get something extra instead of "over-picking him"
I still believe in Fultz he’s got it in him and whether or not he becomes an all star talent still a very good player with the magic.
he got that charles barkley golf swing shot
Lakers had a chance to draft JT? N didn't? 🤨🤣🤣🤣
This is an excellent video, but the answer to this is much simpler than people give it credit for. Nba players are contractually forbidden from taking part in certain activities, contact sports, motor cycles, ATVs etc. Fultz fucked in his shoulder doing one of these forbidden things which, if he admitted it, would have been a violation of the contract. He would have lost his money so he just denied anything and blamed the trainers, the organization and so on. Nerve damage does not show up on an X ray. Look at his box free throws. Notice how it looks like he’s afraid to rotate his deltoid and winds up flinging it instead of shooting.
I don’t get why this is a topic of conversation lol. He doesn’t look bad at all in most of the clips of him and other players have had way worse free throws. So why is this even a topic to talk about?
See the issue is… look at how many times you talked about his shooting and explicitly associated it with him shooting 3s… I agree that for him to be considered elite or even just an all star he has to be able to shoot the 3 ball, but I believe his “bust” status is directly related to how the game is played today… if he comes into the league about 12-15 years ago he’s probably a solid starter at this point in his career
When the programming goes wrong… The powers at be, simply took the powers back, like in space jam.
They tell you the truth in the movies.
Looks similar to dartitis in darts
Yips.
This may be a crazy theory but what if the story of Philly basketball is bookies praying on certain players for spreads?
A head injury would be the most likely culprit for his neuromuscular dysfunction and strange tics.
In all your years?? So how long u been a fan? 3 years or so?😁😁😂 just stop it man
I remember when the 3 point shot wasn't that heavily dwelled upon.
The Celtics won the lottery for the #1 pick, and Markelle Fultz was right there for the taking…
…until Danny Ainge traded it for the #3 pick. DAMN YOU DANNY!!!
Then he took Jayson Tatum at #3. Attaboy Danny! I trusted your judgment all the way!
This vids a bit harsh. Fultz is a solid pro. He’ll be in the NBA for the foreseeable future. Not the worst number 1 pick ever. Definitely better then Anthony Bennett
Imagine if the 76ers drafted Fox
This video should be called Why He Is A Fraud.

Iam a markelle fultz fan
good to see him back
Smooth, confident and consistent. Geez if only he showed this in Phili haha
He looks good out there!
NICE
I really hope the real Florida NBA team takes notice of this guy… With Pat boosting his confidence even higher – Sky is the limit for Fultz. Still has an uncanny way of getting to any spot on the floor without effort.
im so happy for him.
Don't sleep on the homie. He still a number 1 Draft ⛏️ The Team Leader
wow… he has such an incredible feel for the game, plz stay healthy 🙏
Regardless of how bad the magic are Fultz is someone who makes his teammates better and magic fans should be happy to have their best passer back on the court again.
He is back, hope him healthy and enjoy basketball
rooting for this man! prove the doubters wrong.
If only he could find his 3p form back he would be an all star.
Biggest Bust in NBA history.
Now they need Isaac back
Good to see him balling after fixing his shot, it looks smooth. Rooting for him.
Wizards pls trade for him
I'm so glad for him! Bro been thru it💪
If Markelle is truly back then that makes Jalen Suggs expendable con the off-season.
