Rumor: Truthfulness could be holding up a Markelle Fultz trade

If you’re unaware, things are not going particularly well for Markelle Fultz and the Philadelphia 76ers.

Yes, in fact the top pick in 2017’s NBA Draft may very well be leaving the City of Brotherly Love sooner than later. The struggling shooting guard was made more expendable after Philadelphia’s trade for Jimmy Butler on November 12th.

The good news for Philly is that the trade suitors are there. The bad news for everyone is that there’s significant concern that Fultz’s camp isn’t being totally truthful regarding the reasons for the second-year pro’s struggles.
