The torn meniscus that Furkan Korkmaz suffered in mid-February was a devastating blow to a second year player that had shown growth. Prior to the injury, he was competing for playing time against new comers James Ennis and Jonathon Simmons for playing time. After the injury, he was essentially out of the competition. However, it appears that the Philadelphia 76ers are missing his 3-point shooting ability.
Both Simmons and Ennis haven’t been able to get it going from downtown with any type of regularity. Since being traded, Ennis is shooting 23.
