Markelle Fultz works out with Sixers hours after his agent said he would be sidelined

Markelle Fultz participated in light shooting with the 76ers Tuesday even after his agent, Raymond Brothers, said he would not practice or play until he sees a shoulder specialist.

The second-year guard is scheduled to visit one on Monday at New York. So one would assume he is scheduled to miss at least three games. However, his agent's message didn't stop him from attending Tuesday's informal workout.

His agent contacted the Sixers Tuesday morning about his scheduled trip to check out his right shoulder. This news came hours after Fultz did not play in the second half of Monday night's 119-114 victory over the Phoenix Suns.
