Brett Brown joined 97.5 The Fanatic this morning, announcing that he anticipates starting Markelle Fultz in the season opener against the Boston Celtics.
This isn’t a surprise, quite the contrary. But it also hadn’t been set in stone. The door was always open for Brett Brown to reinsert JJ Redick into the starting lineup following what was for the most part an uninspiring preseason from Markelle Fultz.
Fultz showed many fans exactly what they needed to see this preseason. But his performances weren’t anything extraordinary by any stretch of the imagination.
