Markelle Fultz went down against the Warriors in the 3rd quarter going up for a block and twisted his ankle. Only a day after the injury occurred Markelle Fultz himself was saying that he feels great and that the injury is nothing serious. Hopefully, if all goes well for the 76ers I think for the first time in NBA history we will be seeing two number 1 draft picks debuting on the same day as Ben Simmons last year's number 1 pick, was injured for his first season and did not play a single game in his first season in the NBA.

The Atlanta Hawks beat the Chicago Bulls by 20 points the final score being 75-55. The Bulls have made it clear with the trading of franchise star, Jimmy Butler for this years number 7 draft pick with which they took Lauri Markkanen. The big man along with the Bull's 2016 first round pick Denzel Valentine combined for an abysmal 2 of 25 from the field. This is not a good sign however it is still very early and Bulls fans must hold hope that this is just nerves by the youngsters and not an omen of things to come.
