Fultz is a great fit next to Simmons and Embiid though because he looked like a potential 50-40-90 guy out of the gate, with his ability to get any shot he wanted from the perimeter for crunch time. He was never going to be a 9-10 assist guy. More like a 25-5 guy kind of like Kyrie.
Tatum, for example, is making himself look like the best prospect in the draft early on by hitting wide open spot up threes and hustling, and only creating his shot when he's got the right match-up/open lane to do so. Stevens has basically committed to making the game as easy and direct as possible for him(and Jaylen Brown) and it has paid dividends.
It seems like the Sixers are just trying to make the game harder for Fultz which makes no sense. I know it's harder to do with Simmons and Embiid because those are also young guys learning their way...but they really should be focused on developing Fultz off-ball positioning/shooting/scoring moreso than his on-ball. The dude will forever be able to take his man and get a good shot. That's just in his blood. They need to teach him how to play off his co-stars and drill it into his head. instead theyre messing around with his shot because they don't like how he releases the ball off the dribble? GTFOH, I say.
