“We figured it out, and I been back to work this summer. And everything’s back to even better than what it was."
That's Markelle Fultz talking about his 'fixed" jump shot with Isaiah Thomas in a new "For The Record" video from The Players' Tribune.
The two former Washington Huskies with a lot to prove in the upcoming NBA season also discussed their first meeting, having a great time at college, getting drafted (Fultz was the first overall pick and IT was the last player picked in his draft) and future goals.
On Tuesday, Sixers head coach Brett Brown discussed Fultz getting his "mojo" back and said Fultz took 150,000 shots during his workouts with Drew Hanlen this summer. If he started taking those shots the day after the 76ers were eliminated in the playoffs, he took 1,150 shot a day!
Long answer from Brett Brown on Markelle Fultz.
He says that Fultz took 150,000 shots this summer, form isn’t all the way consistent but that he’s back to seeking out shots. pic.twitter.com/8fbVRe3ZaU
