The official Philadelphia 76ers storyline is that they are undecided on whether or not Markelle Fultz will return this season. Reports indicate that Fultz’s shoulder is healed and his shot looks good. The general consensus among most writers and 76ers fans alike is to begin playing Fultz. I believe the Sixers should sit Fultz for the rest of the season, and here’s why.
Playing Fultz at this point in the season is a no-win situation, both for Fultz and the 76ers. The Sixers are still adjusting rotations with the current additions of Marco Belinelli and Ersan Ilyasova.
