Markelle Fultz (shoulder) still doesn't have an official timetable for his return, but he's making "great progress," according to head coach Steve Clifford. "He's working hard, he's made great progress," said Clifford. "You know, right now we don't have a timetable for when he'll be back, but he's really doing a great job." Clifford added that he would have liked to have seen Fultz play at Summer League, but he's still not quite ready, which is fairly concerning given he hasn't taken the court since November and has only made it through a total of 33 games since being drafted in 2017.

Same song and dance. Classic Markelle.

This is an interesting take that I'd not heard before...........

“I think Ben Simmons shoots with the wrong hand. He is a right-handed player shooting with the wrong hand. Until he switches shooting hands, I don’t see Ben Simmons becoming at least an average shooter.” — KevinOConnorNBA

Yeah, someone taught him the completely incorrect thing, it's something Philly fans have known for a while.

Been speculated about for a few years now. He does everything on the court better and more often with his right hand, but shoots jumpers with his left.

I didnt realize that.....which begs the question, why does he do it? Seems kinda odd actually.
