Markelle Fultz needs a perimeter jumper to play next to Ben Simmons

This week got off to an overwhelmingly positive start for the Philadelphia 76ers. They’re rolling (again) and have a chance to jump into the third seed tonight, a position nobody thought they’d be in when the season began.

On top of that, Markelle Fultz returned to action Monday night and looked *pauses for dramatic effect* really good. In just 14 minutes, he got up plenty of shots and made some gorgeous passes en route to 10 points and eight assists. His only turnover came on his first possession, which is impressive considering the circumstances.
