University of Washington Huskies point guard Markelle Fultz sat courtside to see the Philadelphia 76ers host the Brooklyn Nets. His visit has set the fans of the Philadelphia 76ers abuzz

Washington Huskies point guard Markelle Fultz is a highly regarded soft-spoken young man about to embark on a journey which will change his life forever. So important is this moment, that his interest in trying to get a “sneak peak” around the corner is perfectly understandable.

So he made it a point to catch a game between the Brooklyn Nets visiting the Philadelphia 76ers. While both teams have a chance at the top pick of the 2017 NBA Draft, the pick from the Brooklyn Nets will be claimed in a pick swap by the Boston Celtics.  If Markelle Fultz was auditioning for an NBA team, that team was the Philadelphia 76ers.

It was a good decision. The fans of the Philadelphia 76ers know basketball and with the team accumulating some of the best young talent in the NBA, Markelle Fultz has already been linked to the team as the “next wave”
