Philadelphia 76'ers rookie Zhaire Smith fractures foot - Distrust the Process
Quick question. Who was the last 76'ers rookie to get drafted - come into training camp healthy the same year - and play significant minutes in most of the 82 regular-season games? Let me know, because I am not looking it up. Looks like there is another Philadelphia rookie casualty in the person of Zhaire Smith.
Smith had MRI/imaging in Philadelphia today revealing a Jones fracture -- with surgery scheduled for later this week, league sources said. He also will see another specialist in Philadelphia. https://t.co/VT0RVpZ9oi

Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons, Markelle Fultz. The list keeps growing. The Process cannot be trusted until the predicted rewards come to fruition. This is truly unfortunate for Zhaire, and we wish him the speediest recovery possible. We hear rumors that Markelle's shot is fixed and that Ben Simmons may have found his. We will see come October.
