76ers' Brett Brown: Markelle Fultz (shoulder) can make impact 'without having to shoot'
Per Philly.com's Keith Pompey, Philadelphia 76ers head coach Brett Brown said that rookie guard Markelle Fultz "can still impact an NBA game without having to shoot."
Brown added, "That doesn’t make him whole, though. Finding that where he can and go into an NBA game and feel more whole than he currently does is the timeline of 'Ok when does he go play.'" There's been no timetable set for his return, but it looks like he'll be asked to shoot regardless of any form issues.
numberFire's models project Fultz to account for 10.1 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists over 25.4 minutes a game the rest of the year.
