About Markelle Fultz’ sudden and mysterious fall from grace as a basketball star, this much is clear: He’ll never be invited to Hec Edmundson Pavilion for the retirement ceremony of his No. 20 jersey.
Fultz was identified Friday as among the more than 25 players who received money from a shady sports agency before they had declared themselves eligible for the NBA draft.
