Philadelphia 76ers get their man Markelle Fultz
By Bret Stuter
The Time Is Now
The time is now. This is the year to load up the bus and get to work. The Philadelphia 76ers have packaged back to back number ones on the same roster. That’s literally unheard of in the NBA (unless of course you are the Cleveland Cavaliers)
Pause a moment to reflect on that. The team now has a true core led by aging veteran Robert Covington (sarcasm folks). We’ve looked at the roster with Markell Fultz, and it’s enough to cause plenty of optimism. The team is sequenced. Great talent all in the same age and contract life ranges.
Stay Healthy
Now the team simply needs to stay healthy, develop and play together.
That just so happens to be head coach Brett Brown’s wheelhouse.
