Matisse Thybulle continues to have trouble with Sixers rookie duties

Philadelphia 76ers rookie Matisse Thybulle continues to struggle with his rookie duties.

At this point in the season, everybody should know their role on and off the floor. For Philadelphia 76ers rookie Matisse Thybulle, his role on the floor is to provide elite defense and he has done that on an elite level for a rookie.

Off the floor? He continues to have issues with his rookie duties.

As is customary for all rookies throughout the league, they have to go through a season of initiation and that is doing whatever the veterans ask. The majority of his assignments has been getting food for the team before road trips, but he has messed up the team’s order on multiple occasions.

He continues to have issues with that as he and Tobias Harris went to Popeye’s for a team order and Harris was upset with Thybulle the entire time.

Thybulle, Harris, and the Sixers will return home on Wednesday to take on the Detroit Pistons after a 1-3 road trip. They hope to get a little healthier after playing the entire trip with three starters out with injuries. [lawrence-related id=27392,27377,27369]
