No one really knows what to expect from the 76ers backcourt of Ben Simmons and Markelle Fultz. After all, both will be making their NBA debuts. Plus, both are point guards.
But Fultz offered an idea Tuesday after the Sixers’ first training camp practice. The University of Washington product thinks the pairing will cause problems for opponents.
“It’s unpredictable,” he said. “I feel sorry for the teams that are going to have to go against that.”
The first overall pick in June’s NBA draft actually relishes it. He and Simmons shared point-guard duties throughout Tuesday’s practice and could do the same this season.
