We thought he was fit to play Sunday night, Markelle Fultz ended up extending his rest for a few days. We’re not really that close anymore, but we’re still enough “nearly” to feel the hype fill our bellies. No, Orlando’s darling did not end his career as a first choice.
Markelle Fultz, Bol Bol, Franz Wagner, Paolo Banchero and Gary Harris. Aside from that last fire we’ve grown accustomed to since Methuselah, the Magic’s potential to start five (5-16) to host Atlanta (11-10) on Wednesday night is a fantastic message of peace among all people. Let’s sit quietly before this meeting and appreciate what nature has the most incredible to offer us: the 1st pick of the 2022 Draft, the 1st pick of the 2017 Draft, a German “Team” well “fixed”, the incredible Bol Bol and the perfect catalyst for all this passion, Gary Harris, the back who makes a wave every four years. It’s been a very long time since we’ve seen a «start five» so exciting, and it makes more than seven months that Markelle Fultz hasn’t stepped on an NBA floor because of a broken toe. According to Shams Charania, who does not get wet personally, is the leader of the Magic “please note available to start his season Wednesday against Atlanta. Unless there is a last-minute change, Fultz will play well in his 132nd NBA game. A very sad total at the start of his sixth career season. May keep his joints until he reaches a minimum threshold of play nice.
