UW Huskies signee Markelle Fultz shines at Nike Hoop Summit practice

Washington Husky signee Markelle Fultz impressed on the first day of practice this week in preparation for Saturday’s Nike Hoop Summit at Portland’s Moda Center.

Fultz, a five-star guard from DeMatha Catholic in Hyattsville, MD, is one of 13 players chosen to the USA Basketball Junior National Select team.

Here’s the scouting report on Fultz from Mike Schmitz at Draft Express.

“Washington signee Markelle Fultz also impressed with his combination of scoring and distributing. At 6′ 4” with a 6′ 8.5” wingspan, big hands and a nice frame, Fultz has the tools and game to play either guard spot, although he shined most as a primary ball handler on Wednesday.
