Sixers Season Preview: Is Markelle Fultz the piece that puts the Sixers over?

The summer of 2018 has come and passed, and despite lofty expectations for the free agency period, the Sixers’ core remains exactly as it was to start last season (well, minus Jahlil Okafor). There was one very significant change however: after a Twitter fiasco of epic proportions, Bryan Colangelo stepped down from his position with the organization, leaving the Sixers without a General Manager. Months passed before the franchise’s leadership finally hired their man. Now the Sixers head into this season with former Sixer Elton Brand leading the Front Office.
