Better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all. That, however, is not a problem when what you love is a chicken sandwich.
In a hilarious series of interviews with NBA rookies, Sports Illustrated reporter Rohan Nadkarni posed a blunt yet deep and complicated question: Have you ever been in love?

Most of the answers are bleh and vague. (Hey, Dennis Smith Jr., saying you "think so" about your longtime girlfriend may not give her a lot of confidence in your relationship.)
Sixers guard and No. 1 pick Markelle Fultz, however, gives the perfect answer. He is in love with Chick-fil-A and Benihana, the Japanese chain restaurant, forming a complicated love triangle.
Fultz's love of Chick-fil-A is well-documented. In fact, it's one of the reasons he was excited about coming to Philly.
The lesson here is Markelle is a smart young man and you do not need love if you eat delicious fast food often.
