Wherever Markelle Fultz is shooting, rest assured: Brett Brown is watching. Sort of.
Brown, through the Sixers’ sports science team, can track and chart every shot, made or missed, that Fultz takes this summer while he’s away from the team. At least, Brown can keep track of Fultz’s shooting if Fultz places his iPhone on a tripod at courtside, tilts it at a 45-degree angle and turns on the HomeCourt application.
“It’s still in a bit of an early adoption phase, but we are using it with some players,” said Dr. David Martin, the Sixers’ sports science chief.
