I really hope he does well in Orlando
He probably will after he leaves Orlando
Joe Smith Everybody does good after leaving Orlando
@@David-mu7dm name me 5 players who reached their prime in Orlando and played better once they left???? Lol you don't know what your talking about buddy!!
@@tomskeez1504 shaq, oladipo, Dwight
@@wabe4pres hahaha such a troll, Dwight became a basket case after leaving Orlando. Oladipo wasn't shit in OKC either and Shaq became a Superstar in Orlando.
I'm surprised 76ers havent fired their medical staff after this incident. Its flat out embarrassing
They knew the entire time what the issue was, or at least what caused it. Admitting the motorcycle accident forces the Sixers to void his contract, (e.g. Jay Williams) and in-turn give up on the investment. Also, it basically is saying, "hey, Boston, you guys won that trade"
Considering most of not all of this seems mental I don’t see why anyone should blame the medical staff. If people are not being fully honest with them and seeing other medical professionals on the side how can you expect them to magically fix him?
@@llamasalpacas1 I agree 100%. Fultz took a chance when he got on that bike. I wonder if he was honest from the beginning about the accident, or if Sixers front office found out later.
What's embarrassing is your lack of understanding on the whole Fultz's situation and blame the Sixers' medical staff. What's even more embarrassing is that you have 70 idiots that like your lazy uninformed hot take.
@@chrishett99 The motorcycle accident was fake news. The truth is stranger and that's simply Fultz really did/does have TOS and it takes forever to heal, and also it the type of injury that isn't checked for until like the 3rd opinions because it's hard to diagnose.
The saddest part of this saga, is his mental health. He lived in fear of having his contract voided after the motorcycle accident. The fear caused anxiety, and the injury brought on depression. As a Sixer fan, who has lived here for 38yrs, I really hope the kid recovers mentally and physically.
The depression is what led his mother to have cameras installed inside his home. She was scared he may hurt himself. That also takes a mental toll on someone. I really, really hope he is seeing a psychologist, vs just a sports psychologist who mainly works on visualization with players. He needs psychotherapy, which should be a trauma-informed base of therapy instead of prolonged exposure therapy. (I do this for a living)
That's horrible 😔😞
I didn't know he had bike accident!!
Do y'all remember Jason Williams point gaurd from Duke? He was the fucking man in college. The bulls picked him #3 his 2nd year he was riding A B.Shit cheap ass bike crashed it. When iseen the bike I was praying his career was over. He Fractured his leg had 3 surgery's,I forgot the other injury. In his contract it says no bike's. He was lucky the bulls bought his contact out for 3million plus 1.5 million a year for 3years. When he came back his states were terrible for the 20 games he played. I felt sorry for him I knew he was gone be a Star. Ain't noway in hell I'm riding motorcycles knowing I'm getting millions. You could be perfect Rider and smack some1 hit you it's over
The motorcycle injury was a bullshit excuse. Too much video of him at practice doing crazy dunks and 20 cartwheels amongst other stuff for him to have a busted shoulder, so that don't fly anymore.
oh stop making up stories... they truth is that the people above me dont want fultz to succed... so they make up bullshit stories to push him down...
If he breaks out in Orlando, well, Philadelphia needs to put the medical staff in the dumpster.
not the sixer's fault fultz's didn't play.
Stalker Bleach sixers staff did nothing wrong, he screwed us, requested a trade after he lost his spot to tj McConnell
@@somethinggood7764 exactly, they got tired of appeasing to make him happy. Also, when he was in the game with Ben, both their defenders clogged the lane daring them to shot and leaving little room for Embiid to do work in the post.
hooderaw exactly, he was never going to work, worst number 1 pick I’ve ever seen, and I hate how many people defend him, the guy seriously screwed us. Basically we drafted jonathon Simmons. We got fucking jonathon Simmons as the 1st overall pick. How are people not pissed at that
He has a disease
Those damn monstars got to him.
Lol
What if they put IT, Markelle Fultz, Gordon Hayward, KAT, & Enes Kanter on Space Jam 2 😂😂💀 then they start playinn like themselves after it's released
Why KAT
Jaden Taylor
Kanter’s been good lately
@@uriah9645 I say KAT because I use to think he was good his rookie year and would be an athletic Shaq one day, but he can't even post the smallest of players. He seems like a small forward to me, I'm bot saying he's not strong; but it seems like he doesn't care about getting better
Easily the most underrated basketball UA-camr 👌🏻

He makes Lonzo look like a prime Magic Johnson when you compare their NBA career as of right now.
Crack Demon LMFAOOO
Lol
Auston Matthews Lonzo is not a bust... and you can’t judge fultz yet as he is still young and full of potential
You didnt watch any of the games he played did he?
I din't think Lonzo is a bust. He needs to be more consistent because some games he's amazing but other games he's terrible. He's a great passer and he's pretty good on defense, especially for a guard but as I said earlier consistency is what he needs to demonstrate.
As for Fultz, I really don't care.
16 months of heartache*
*shoulderache
*mental ache
You didn't mention the thoracic outlet syndrome diagnosis, his mom's video cameras, the relationship between Fultz's trainer and his mom, and the workout which reportedly put Boston off him before the draft.
Also the Sixers never had a shot at Jayson Tatum in that draft because they would have had to lie about who they were drafting to Boston to trade up to take Tatum. They would have ended up with Josh Jackson at number three if they didn't trade up. Boston was willing to take Tatum at number one if they had to.
For me, the most difficult part is that Markelle Fultz and his camp have never been honest or open about what happened. He is too young and immature to speak honestly about what happened, and his people are too invested to do so.
I didn't like anyone at the top of the draft besides Fox or Smith. It was gonna be one of those guys since the sixers still did not know if Ben Simmons could be a full time PG. Fox is looking like the best player from that draft since he is a 2 way player.
Shacari Sperley 1. After he left the team in Nov 18, Fultz was diagnosed with cardiothoracic outlet syndrome which is a nerve damage condition usually seen in baseball pitchers. This makes raising your arm above shoulder very painful but it also hard to diagnose. Giving the timing and Fultz’s doctor shopping, it could have easily been a made up diagnosis to save face.
2. Fultz’s has a very strange relationship with his family , there was a story that his mom had video cameras in Fultz’s home to keep an eye on him. Just very strange in combination with the mental “yips” theory and Fultz general demeanor.
3. Fultz’s mom was dating Fultz trainer, who was almost like a father figure to Markelle. He was the guy who helped Fultz rise from unknown guy to #1 pick. Over the summer after being drafted, the trainer convinced Fultz to alter his shot. Whether this was due to unknown injury, or the trainer attempting to build his own brand as “trainer to the stars”, the lack of success clearly hurt Fultz’s confidence and things spiraled downward.
4. Fultz did not impress in workouts for many teams despite being the “consensus” number one. I’m not sure why this is surprising as I mentioned Fultz came out of nowhere to be the #1 guy, and put up numbers on a terrible Washington team.
@@tonyrame7548 Tatum and Kuzma both look better than Fox.
Rumors I heard before the draft was that Coach Brown really liked Fox and Dennis Smith Jr at #3 but at the time Fultz was the clearly better player and prospect which is why they made the trade. I
@@bucky90269 Fox has lead the Kings to a playoff standing at the moment, he may be the MIP right now.
Dude is hiding an injury. He hurt himself in that motorcycle accident and most sports contracts consider motorcycling a hazardous activity that give the Team an escape clause to not pay the player. So him and his agent are hiding it hoping he will recover on his own.
Miracle 007 good job hiding it from you
Exactly, the Chiefs just told Pat Mahomes he couldn't play in pickup games along with a long list of other activities including riding a motorcycle. If he did his money is no longer guaranteed.
This dude wrecked his shoulder. He may need major shoulder surgery.
There are similarities in most sports. In the nfl, we have the same rules like motorcycle,rock climbing, horse back riding ,etc... You are meat ,belonging to a stable. And they want their players in prime tune. Do you see any professional athlete in any commercial doing high risk activities?
@@user-te5wg6sh5n What u think happened to Fultz? Why doesnt he just fix the problem? He knows what it is obviously. He messed up.
Don't worry
Once Orlando gives up on him and he lands somewhere decent, he will probably breakout because Orlando is the best g league team in the nba
iran lassninja Yo, I’m not even an Orlando Magic fan and that shit hurt me 😂😂
iran lassninja foh
@@micah5ive490 remember oladipo and sabonis?
iran lassninja Yeah remember who was GM when they traded him? Rob Hennigan. They’ve since changed GM and Pres of Op. So don’t try to blame the current regime for the last one’s failures
@@iranlassninja7062 Tobias Harris?
8:22 yo that is a wild freeze frame holy
Long Schnozzed Tribesman you’re racist
I feel so bad for the guy, i really hope he can become an all star one day. Also saddens me to see people meme him
How you so left my boi?😂
But I bet you meme people on social media all the time this generation a bunch of soft hypocrites
Was that motorcycle accident theory debunked? Because if not, people seriously need to consider whether or not he's hiding an injury. You don't look good in your Summer League debut to only then never look good again, UNLESS something happened after that game.
Seems like Fultz's agent wanted to keep this shit on the dlo. Probably something in his contract that woulda fcked up Markelle's money so his agent made up all this bs to keep him payed.
@Erik Lerström its crazy how things have went for Markelle, the fact that his agent has changed stories multiple times is reason to suspect anything. Smoke there is fire
@Erik Lerström I agree with you but something definetly happened and I think once his contract expires he is going to leak it.
@Erik Lerström his broken shot is proof in itself
@Erik Lerström people saying its all mental are actually broken in the head
One of the greatest mysteries in NBA history. hopefully he does well and takes off in Orlando.
I thought he had a nerve disorder in his neck and shoulder.
Embiid, Simmons, Fultz and now Zaire Smith. 4 straight years of players basically missing their rookie season. 76ers medical team a joke
I mean for Embiid and Simmons.. they were still in the process of "tanking" so it's not like they wanted those guys to play
uh how is that the medical teams fault, they didn't like break their bones lmao they just got unlucky
Dont forget Noel
The sixers medical team needs to be completely replaced. The fact that 4 first round draft picks since the process had started have had season ending injuries their rookie season. The mismanagement of markelle and Embiid have been so bad.
Embiid came injured from college...
They were lucky to get Embiid because he was injured already, would have been stuck with Parker or Wiggins. And they obviously held Joel and Ben out to tank after they were healthy
@@sandernista6499 and stayed injured for 2 seasons and only played like 30 games in his 3rd and "rookie" season
Arkan Christian what happened to zhaire aswell
@@wardis7794 yeah i was including embiid, simmons, fultz, and zhaire as the 4 1st rounders who missed their roomie seasons but now that i think about it even nerlens Noel had serious injury problems
Hopefully the Magic medical staff is better than the 76ers' doctors.
@Erik Lerström Bulls.
Erik Lerström spurs medical staff
They'll Be Using some Magic
Don't worry. Pharma owns Florida. He'll get just the right roids here. I mean supplements.
Looking at everything the Magic have done to young talent. Fultz career is over
Great breakdown!
My take is: Fultz was trying to learn how to ride a motorcycle during the pre-season, he dropped it and injured himself, and hid it because it was an immature and irresponsible activity to be involved in. Now that decision and the burden of hiding the truth has taken a toll on his emotional and mental stability, and his shoulder is still not normal.
Fultz is about to have a oladipo resurgence in Orlando the all will be in his hands
Orlando got impatient with Vic and didn’t let him grow and traded him.
I like that you're obtimistic... but no fam. Dude is broken
They both went to dematha kinda weird
MDJ like if he should double upload for Trade overview
They should have fired them back when joel was out for 3 yrs and simmons misses hia rookie year
Sixers drafted someone no.1 and traded them 16 months later lol thats worse than the knicks
Taki Inuoe not draft a guy who you’ll trade later on for your Allstar for yeah Knicks done worst
And they’re still finals contenders. No one is worse than the knicks.
@@SaltoDaKid fair point but its still funny
Found the knicks fan
@@DaCoDgamer ur hard
The sixers literally could’ve almost drafted anyone else drafted in the top ten that year and it would’ve worked out better
Cousins Perfect the medical doctors miss diagnosed him
Frank ntikina? 😂😂
Vidhu Jha great defense but it wouldn’t be ideal to have 2 non shooters on the roster
Vidhu Jha frank still would’ve been more useful than fultz lol he would’ve actually played and frank has pretty versatile defense defending 1-3
2nd: Ball: Yes and no. The fit with Simmons is weird especially without having a jumpshot but a good defender and could even slide to SG if needed
3rd: Tatum, Yes. Duh.
4th: Jackson. Yes. Athletic raw wing with scoring potential and good defense would be great off the bench
5th: Fox, Yes and no. Yet again similar to Lonzo but can't guard 2s. Wouldn't be a great fit but it would still work better than Fultz did
6th: Isaac. Yes. Same vein as Jackson. Amazing length and could even play some minutes at the 5 if need be
7: Markkanen, Yes. Duh.
8: Ntilikina: Maybe. In a position of need at the 2, but can't play off the ball and can't shoot at all. Good defender but overall a negative. Bench option for 15 a game at best on the 76ers
9: DSJ: Yeah why not, athletic with some life of a jumper but not close to where it needs to be. Yet again a weird fit for spacing but would be good off the bench
10: Collins: Yes. I love this fit, perfect 4 to go next to Embiid, low usage, good defender, rebounder, and shows life as a 3PT shooter.
So yeah basically every top 10 pick, you could easily say the whole lottery with Monk, Kennard, Mitchell and Bam too
So proud of this channel, it’s great
He was under too much pressure in Philadelphia
Clorox Bleach stfu
You think he was under pressure how do you think Lonzo feels in LA it’s 100 times worse.
@@andrewbell7579 so? We are not talking about lonzo
@My Superior facts
@@andrewbell7579 u gotta be kidding me
Dang dude you really stepped up your video quality, keep going buddy and best of luck
I remember the first time I ever watched a video of yours, I subbed within a minute which is rare for me, just because of your analysis. Perfect as always
I love how your videos don’t have click baity tiles, cheesy thumbnails and fake over the top enthusiasm. Respect!
I had a Celtics Assistant GM do a talk at my school. While he was talking about the Celtics long history of draft success, he mentioned that they had identified Fultz's jumper as broke long before the draft. He said they knew it wouldn't translate into the NBA and that they were playing with the media by saying that they were going to take him 1st overall.
Ben Harasyn Celtics Drafted poorly for years. Only now with unbelievable assets have they drafted well. They just didn’t need a Point guard and now they wanna sound smart in hindsight. I’m sure he also knew Gordon Hayward would be terrible this season as well right? Lmao
Shacari Sperley he goes to the university of people full of shit 😂
Grayson Wright well his foot was dangling off a year ago. It’s not like it happened out of nowhere
Great recap Marc -- these kinds of summaries will have historical value when we reflect back in 10 or 20 years.
Well nice job as always, MDJ! I'm the opinion that it was and is, the yips. I do hope Fultz can come back and possibly regain his shooting touch. Like you said, a new start with a patient organization may be what Fultz needs.
@Erik Lerström I agree. IMO, it started as physical(possibly the bike crash, or general soreness) But when Fultz was asked to switch his shot up it fucked with his muscle memory
First video I’ve seen of yours...
Way better than the other basketball youtubers.
Bad ass video!!
Maan..this story is so horrifying to be honest.🤭
You completely forgot to mention one huge factor that pivoted 76ers decision about Markelle.
Amari Cooper doing the Fultz free throw after a touchdown.
Just saw this, you are VERY talented with your ability to get information across to the watcher of your video..... WELL DONE!!!!
I think this is the first video I watch on this channel. Good stuff mate keep 'em coming. I genuinely think that Fultz forgot how to play ball
Watching footage from his college season gives me chills his game was sooo smooth 😪
Idunno. He barely seemed like the best husky. I didn't watch all their games, but caught some of each
There is no way you can forget to shoot when you play basketball on a DAILY Basis. Something must've happened. And know he is a bust.
Really good recap Marc, well put together!
First and foremost, great vid bro! This is the most bizarre situation concerning a number 1 pick ever. I really like the kid has a person and hope he has a successful career.
I don't hate Fultz and i wish him the best but this whole situation was holding a cloud over our organization and team
Right, because the 76ers medical staff has a stellar track record

Excellent analysis and commentary Sir!
for the first 4 seconds i thought that was a real basketball and marc was just 4'10
It’s sad Landry Shamet had more trade value than Fultz
TheFrostbite324 I know it’s crazy. A guy who was picked in the late first round has proved to be more productive than the #1 pick just 16 months ago
Your vids are dope man keep up the good work!
You gained my subscription. Great video!
Have orlando said anything about his injuries or their intentions?
It’s a shame NBA teams don’t have mental health doctors. The Yips is somewhat common, to an extent, in baseball. Like Rick Ankiel can’t throw strikes, or Chuck Knoblauch can’t throw to first. And that one catcher who walked to ball back to the pitcher cuz he couldn’t throw to him. It’s a mental block that needs to specialist a come help and deal with it.
I went through it after tearing 3 muscles in my throwing arm. It took a season of playing second and first base over shortstop and catcher my main positions to get back into form
not Sauer yep! The “Yips” are a real thing
Love the music in the background. Great vid.
Your videos are quality. Best basketball youtuber.
All these moves Brand has made have cleaned up the mistakes Colangelo made we draft Fultz over Tatum so what does Brand do he goes and gets a Tatum like player in Tobias and then he trades away Fultz Fultz isnt a mistake Colangelo drafting him to a team that had a pg already was the mistake and i wish Fultz the best on the Magic tbh
I think at the time he was probably thinking fultz would be switched to a 2 guard and at the time I think they still had Simmons as a forward playmaker not an actual pg who brings up the ball, but I agree he did mess up on drafting fultz over Tatum, same w lakers not drafting Tatum and all the other teams that passed on Fox Mitchell and kuzma
The mistake was the medical handling of his injury. I’m bewildered that the medical staff is still even employed.
Can't wait for the playoffs! Sixers have no depth and are gunna get exposed!
@@bucky90269 Cant wait for the Celtics to be a 2nd round exit to the Bucks!
@@RefundHD Could definitely happen. The Celtics have been a streaky team this year. If they aren't playing up to snuff when the time comes they'll get bounced.
No you're wrong the Sixers would have taken Josh Jackson at 3. He was regarded by Boston as a legit number 1 option. The Lakers wanted him an Fox bad, it was Jeannie who wanted Lonzo, an Philly definitely would've taken Jackson. Tatum wasn't even considered a top 4 pick.
Great summary and super well researched!
I feel you bro, I feel you bro. You almost made me choke to death with the "remove my entire shoulder for 10 mil" take... LOL
Dang it was only 16 months? Seems like years ago when Markelle Fultz was so hyped. I wish him the best; I hate seeing prospects fail, especially when I’ve been following their journey to the NBA.
You never mentioned when he got diagnosed with TOC(thoracic outlet syndrome)
This is huge and with this long video you would think it would be important enough to be in it.
It's a fake injury
He had been seen by a lot of doctors and had been consistently diagnosed as healthy then after awhile someone eventually diagnosed him with that strange injury. He just didn't wanna play because he was benched
@@BlacknWhite076 Fake injury? Ive worked in an orthopaedic office for 2 years before I got a job in forensic physchiatry so I have some knowledge about TOS. TOS is one of the most challenging and controversial conditions. Neck pain, upper extremity pain are the most common symptons but these 2 symptoms are common with tons of neurogenic diseases, muscle injuries etc. A large plethora of different diagnoses that range from neuropathies, they could be orthopaedic or even changes to the cervical spine.
There are also 3 subdivisions of TOS and that makes it even more difficult to diagnose.
@@tilengavez9324 I'm talking about fultz here who mysteriously got this shadow injury when they traded for jimmy butler
I love this guys analysis and coverage.
This is giving me chills and this is trippy as hell
I feel they drained too much fluid out of his shoulder when you look at it, the 76ers were doing far too much when it came to Fultz health..this is ridiculous
Your entire shoulder... *starts browsing the dark web for buyers*
Wow that was terrible.
one legged millionaire lmaooo
great vid, keep the content up and may u get more CPM amen
bro, love your vids, hope you do well and get to 200k soon. peace
There was no way Fultz would reach his potential with 4 allstar caiber players and Redick on the team he had to go especially when Simmons is already our pg and we are already commited to him hes a potential superstar not saying Fultz cant be a allstar either but not on this team
He reminds me of Anthony Bennet
Hell no dude Bennett was a next level shit. The big fat boi never got injured, or dealt with mental issues; he was just no at the level that everyone hyped him for. He bullied out high school kids at a bad division to make a reputation off of him. Very similar to Zion. Zion used to drop 60+ in HS, and cant drop more than 20 at Duke now which shows the importance of D1 college basketball. Fultz had bad luck in injuries, while Bennett was a trash player that Cavs deluded themselves that he was the next Bron.
Great video. It's easy to tell you know a lot about not only basketball but other stuff too. Easy sub
ur vids are amazing! And ure 20?! More insight n depth than a lot of pro analysts out there!
Too bad he never reached his fultz potential

Fuck you
G. Yan when he is still extremely young and was miss diagnosed
Lol hes 20
Get out, leave. Don’t come back again.
I still think there is something else going on with him. Something that he is hiding
Keep up the vids man
Nice video dude but one key detail which you missed out is the GM change in the Sixers organisation which probably led to the new GM pulling the trigger on the Fultz experiment. Then again, the Colangelo burner account scandal is easily worth a video by itself.
Fultz gonna be all-star some day
I learned my lesson don't buy a jersey because it's the number one pick ,🤕💀💀
Why would anyone buy a jersey just bc someone was a number 1 pick? You buy jerseys bc you like the player
great video man, subscribed
Underrated channel! Keep it up
We are in win now mode we couldn't afford to keep waiting on Fultz to get healthy or get his jumpshot back in fact its FinalsOrBust if we dont make the finals 2 allstars and with 2 allstar snubs along with a all time great shooter and a revamped and upgraded bench its a dissapointment
Im not a hating the Sixers or anything but rn? The Raptors, Bucks and even the Celtics are better suited. The Sixers are still very young and shouldn't worry
@@igloo614
No Contracts exist. They should worry if you knew anything about Cap Space and Current Contracts you would know that.
Butler probably is gone anyway but Harris is having fat big and overpaid money FOR SURE. This trade was good but I think they will destroy their cap with Tobias.
This is silly. 76ers core is still relatively young.
I also think it's funny that it's finals or bust because the Warriors are so overpowered it isn't fun anymore for anyone but them.
He got into a bike accident after the summer camp and hid that from all who mattered. never got a proper rehab for the shulder and spiraled down a destructive mental path due to the original sin (lie). He will be out of the league in 3 years and he only has himself to blame.
I like this theory. But his shot was crap to begin with. In college, he shot 41% from 3pt.... but 65% from the line? That's pretty bad. I think it's believable that he messed up his shot trying to increase his range and percentages.
@@mildyproductive9726 that might be the case too. But whatever it is, his shot and confidence in it completely evaporated after the summer league and even worse, his attitude throughout the entire ordeal has been even worse.
Yup. True to all that. But I think he probably didn't hide the accident from "all who mattered." If there was an accident, I bet he told his mother and his agent.
And if he were right in the head, he would accept that he did what he had to... to take care of his mother, financially. He got paid. He would accept that he is not living up to his #1 draft status, because he knows he can't. Not today, maybe never. He would keep his head down and his mouth shut and just do the best he can to help his team and to hopefully have a job, somewhere, after his contract expires. This doctor shopping would be weird. You get a dozen doctors giving you a clean physical, then why go out of your way to come up with a diagnosis of a condition often caused by an injury when you are trying to hide an accident?
Here's another theory. He's a kid from a broken home. He has stunted mental/emotional development. He doesn't have a guilty conscience. He has confidence issues. He never felt like he was worthy of #1 to begin with. The 76ers wanted him to walk onto a playoff ready team and take the 2 spot. To be a perimeter spot up shooter to open up the floor and drop some 3's. And he couldn't drop a 23 foot shot to save his life. Now, someone who is confident in his abilities don't care. He knows he is good enough, overall, even if he isn't a great shooter. Lonzo throws up air balls; he don't care. Reload. Do it again. Kobe Bryant will take a left handed turn around 3 at the buzzer for the damn game. Markelle is not that guy. No confidence. He doesn't feel good enough, and he is afraid other people will see that he not good enough. So he doesn't shoot, at all. His personal trainer slash mom's BF tells him his shot is not good enough. He believes it. Stepdad/trainer says he has to completely change his shot. He believes it. Markelle believes he is not good enough, but he believes he can be better. He can do what Lonzo ball can't. He can completely change his shot. He believes it cuz someone he trusts is saying it. Then he gets to the FT line in front of all those cameras and stepdad isn't there by his side. It's just him in front of the world. And he doesn't actually believe it; he never did. Believe in himself.
Another banger keep it up
Great video. Wish you could upload more daily. Thanks!

Don't get drafted number 1 if you can't handle pressure it's that simple ...I love how people make a million excuses for him cuz he's a number one pick but if there was someone at the bottom of the first round maybe 2nd round you guys would be laughing making fun of him and says who cares
