Examples of trainers/coaches actively tricking off a player? Players switching hands and getting worse?
Zhaire had a nut allergy. Lost 40 pounds. He hasnt been able to stick because he probably wasn’t that good in the first place.
Fultz denied an injury causing his shooting (could be contract related). The MRIs showed everything was clean. His trainer said it was the "yips"
Tristan Thompson FTs comes to mind. A trainer tried to change Mikal Bridges form, vids of it had plenty of backlash during the draft. Then he denied he's tweaking his form.
There are others just cant think off the top of my head now.
Embiid was projected to go #1. Maxey I'll give them credit on (crazy it came from the Fultz trade). They butchered their picks more often than not.
