Orlando's Markelle Fultz (shoulder) taking time with return
Orlando Magic point guard Markelle Fultz (shoulder) reiterated on Thursday that he remains without an official timetable to return and won't rush his rehab.
What It Means:
Fultz understandably wants to play it safe with his fresh start in Orlando, so it wouldn't be a surprise to see him wait until next season before making his team debut. The 20-year-old has only appeared in 33 career games since being taken 1st overall by the Philadelphia 76ers in 2017.
Fultz averaged 19.5 FanDuel points for the 76ers this season, with 8.2 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.1 assists, and 0.9 steals per contest.
