The new NBA season is right around the corner and Markelle Fultz is STILL a free agent. Fultz seemed to have potentially found his footing with the Orlando Magic, but since the drafting of Paolo Banchero, Fultz has struggled to assimilate to their new heliocentric style of basketball around him.

There’s all sorts of reasons as to why Markelle Fultz is potentially being phased out of the NBA, not the least of which is his lack of a perimeter shot, something that’s a become a prerequisite for guards to have. With fewer and fewer redeeming qualities to his game, the question needs to be asked: is Markelle Fultz being left behind by the NBA?

As one of the biggest NBA free agents of 2024, let’s see if there’s still a place for him.

    Fultz would be great on a team with a ton of scorers…like the Sixers.

    Some teams need a guy that can effectively distribute and defend, with how agile guard centric the league has gotten, but the NBA is so dysfunctional about offense as if teams have multiple basketballs to score someone like Fuktz that could help a team get over a hump is left behind.

    He can sign for 2 years to get that NBA medical at 10 years at least and probably become bench point guard in the league

  9. @3hristopher

    He might be done or he has to go to a bottom feeding team cause that’s probably his best chance

  11. @uglied6265

    I think he should go to Europe for 1-2 years. Be the main guy over there and play mins to get his confidence back and then see where he is after that

    Guard is very deep in nba right now. You got decent proven guys like Shamet barely getting deals and they are partially guaranteed. I hope it works out for Fultz though as I believe him to be a decent bench guard that still has some upside.

    i never knew about his injuries till a few nights ago and additionally his unique body. So interesting. Having to relearn his jumper after that extra rib changed everything

  17. @iamkailong

    Nugget should sign him instead. Yes his 3 pt shooting is not good, but it is overall a very good replacement for kcp. imo he can do for for nuggets than weskbrook.

    You know, i think this is one of the main reasons I’m excited for the new teams being added to the league. With more teams more guys will get more opportunities, hell we might see Fultz and some other under the radar guys get signed and possibly make a difference.

    Yeah, after living through and seeing the story of the one, DRose Unfold… seeing whats going on with Fultz now is a complete nightmare.

    There was a different level of excitement I had with Fultz when I saw those Washington highlights and he got drafted.. for me, it almost riveled that of DRose.

    Fultz was just something Different.

    He will find a new team. Personally I think The Suns and Brooklyn would be a good place.

    Always rooting for him, still think he has a chance to be something diff.
