LAS VEGAS — Folks will get to see for themselves when videos of Markelle Fultz shooting surface, but the 76ers’ message is that the first overall pick of the 2017 NBA draft is showing improvement.
Sixers coach and interim general manager Brett Brown even said that Fultz is “doing great” while spending the past five weeks working out with independent shooting coach Drew Hanlen in Los Angeles.
“I feel just so excited to see him play NBA basketball and show why he was the first player chosen in the NBA draft,” Brown said. “And I have tremendous optimism and confidence that he’s going to have a hell of a year next year.
