Philadelphia 76ers: The crowd is in Markelle Fultz’s corner

It has been yet again, another long process for a 76ers No.1 overall pick to get back onto the court. Markelle Fultz is playing this year with his fixed jumper. The 20-year-old has made incredible progress from a year ago and the crowd loves it.

In the Philadelphia 76ers home opener Tuesday night they blew out the Chicago Bulls in a 127-108 victory. Markelle Fultz had himself a promising game, racking up 12 points, four rebounds, five assists and two steals while shooting 5-15 from the field in 32 minutes. Fultz made headlines by making his first three-pointer in a regular season game.
