Philadelphia 76ers: What is Markelle Fultz’s NBA ceiling?

Coming out of college, Markelle Fultz was the consensus No. 1 pick, and the only player that had no holes in his game. He was rated so highly because of his unique ability to score the basketball in many ways, with a rare talent in changing speeds while attacking the rim and making plays. His length and athleticism equip him with all the tools to become a more-than-viable perimeter defender in the league.

Obviously, Markelle has had some obstacles during his rookie season with the Philadelphia 76ers. A mystifying shoulder injury (a muscular imbalance) that seemingly came out of nowhere sidelined him, causing him to visibly alter his shooting form.
