Fultz works out for 76ers, amid draft trade talks

CAMDEN, N.J. (AP) Markelle Fultz worked out for Philadelphia on Saturday night, as the 76ers continued moving toward potentially acquiring the No. 1 pick from the Boston Celtics and having the chance to make the first overall selection for the second consecutive season.

The 76ers and Celtics are discussing a deal where Boston would send the No. 1 spot in the draft Thursday night to Philadelphia for the No. 3 pick this year and future selections.

Fultz – donning a Philadelphia cap as he arrived at the team’s practice facility – visited the 76ers on Saturday in a hastily arranged get-to-know-you session, with the workout and meeting with team officials on his itinerary.
