JJ Redick says 76ers teammates support Markelle Fultz in recovery

Videos of Philadelphia 76ers rookie Markelle Fultz taking shots hit social media after many of the team's practices. It's become something of a cottage industry for "experts" to spend time dissecting the form of the No. 1 overall pick in last June's NBA draft.

Fultz has been sidelined by a shoulder injury that contributed to an altered shot before the team shut him down to heal and then rebuild his shot. Fultz isn't made available to the media, but veteran teammate JJ Redick came to his defense on Friday, before the 76ers beat the visiting New Orleans Pelicans, 100-82.
