Markelle Fultz To Miss At Least The Next Three Games Due To His Sore Shoulder/Shit Shot

Well, that’s cute. Even cuter how the music in that video made it seem like he was battling through a mortal wound during a movie set in the Middle Ages instead of a sore shoulder. Even so, something obviously ain’t right. He’s shooting 33% from the field, attempts next to zero jumpers, and has a free throw shooting form that would be regarded as blasphemous from a toddler, let alone the #1 overall pick:

Shit. And that’s just not a one time deal. It’s a hard shank 50% of the time (ironically he somehow makes the other 50% of his shots).

I suppose the real question to ask is, well, WHY THE FUCK IS HE PLAYING WITH A BANGED UP SHOULDER IN THE FIRST PLACE?????? This is a franchise that sat Joel Embiid out for basically 2.5 seasons and are still (attempting to) baby him to death. Ben Simmons probably could’ve played a good amount of games last year, but they allowed him to rest the full season, anyways. What, are we now all of a sudden ready to win a championship and need all the top dicks out on the hardwood? There’s NO point in allowing Markelle Fultz play right now. Putting him out there when he’s less than 100% physically will result in him being less than 100% mentally in the future, or worse.

Get your shit together, kid. There’s no shame in getting healthy at this stage of the game. Time to get back to basics.
