Sixers-Rockets Preview/Game Thread

Related Topics: Markelle Fultz

I, for one, am relieved that Markelle Fultz has been ruled out indefinitely due to whatever shoulder issues may or may not be hampering or not remotely hampering his ability to no longer shoot the basketball from any distance greater than ten feet. The all-encompassing PR debacle and media circus surrounding the 2017 #1 pick has distracted from an all-time rookie start from the Sixers’ other first overall selection. With Fultz out of the picture for the foreseeable future— hopefully working out whatever bizarre hijinks have subsumed his early basketball career— we can step back and appreciate the two other insane talents we have on this basketball team.
