Here’s a roundup of what analysts on ESPN and NBA TV had to say after the 76ers made it official and took Markelle Fultz with the No. 1 pick in the draft.
Jay Bilas, ESPN:
“They’re getting a guy who’s got an NBA frame already. He’s got great length and he’s a three-level scorer. He can score from deep, he can score in the middle game, and he can score at the rim. Great body balance. By far, in this draft, the best pick-and-roll ball-handler in the draft. He’s essentially a James Harden clone on the offensive end.
