Wait, that could be a bit of a red flag.
Philadelphia 76ers No. 1 overall pick Markelle Fultz became a basketball Twitter talking point on Monday night when his unorthodox free throw form was brought to the spotlight.
It's worth noting that Fultz hit 64.9 percent on free throws in college - a surprisingly low average since he's otherwise an effective jumpshooter that hit 41.3 percent from deep.
