It's not easy for the Magic to win today. Although the Wizards rested on Shao Wei for a while, they forced the Magic to play again from the beginning of the game. At the end of the third quarter, the Wizards led the Magic 94-77, and the game was about to enter garbage time.
But at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Magic made a sudden effort and finally won the game with a 7-point advantage. Although Magic and Wizards are not really strong teams in the NBA today, this game can be said to be ups and downs.
Magic finally won the game, and Fultz's performance was absolutely indispensable. Fultz, as the team's starting guard, made one shot 1 1 ball, and made two three-pointers. It was his efficient play that made the Magic bite the score in the first half, which also reserved hope for the counterattack in the fourth quarter.
Magic won all the first three games this season, and Fultz averaged 20.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 4.3 assists in these three games. It is no exaggeration to say that he has gradually become the core of the magic backcourt.
In the first three games, Fultz hit as high as 49%, which is especially difficult for an outside player. Of course, his three-point shooting percentage is not high, but he also made 2 of 3 shots in this game, which shows his confidence in the game.
Such Fultz, who dare to say that they are "parallel imports"? In this Fultz, the Magic's $50 million contract renewal three years before the start of the season is really worth it. What really restricts Fultz's growth is injury. The rookie season announced the season reimbursement without playing a game, and did not return until the end of the season.
In the second season, he made strange moves many times in the game. Later, people learned that he was infected with a strange disease. At the end of that season, the 76 ers traded him to Magic. It can be said that Fultz fell to the bottom of his life at that time. Fortunately, he chose nirvana instead of sinking into the bottom.
Last season, Fultz averaged12.65,438+0 points, 3.3 rebounds and 5. 1 assists in Magic. Throughout the season, he completed the triple jump from marginal players to core players and then to starting players.
This season, he has further become the core of the team's backcourt. This kind of Fultz is no longer a parallel import. He just started a little slower than the players who entered the NBA in the same year.
