I'd be lying to say I know how it works during the regular season with a player that's on IR. Obviously he was doing rehab. From what I know, most of the developmental stuff has to occur during the offseason/preseason. During the season, the coaches are worried about the players they actually have on the roster. I'm not sure who is to blame for the lack of mental development of Fowler during his rehab time.
