93. . PG. Washington. Markelle Fultz. 1. player

HT: 6’4″  WT: 195  WINGSPAN: 6’9 ¾”   Age: 19

Unsurprisingly, Markelle Fultz was our unanimous choice for the No. 1 overall pick in the draft. Danny Ainge is either a mad genius or someone who will rue the day he moved the top pick. In any case, the Sixers get the top prize in Fultz and are on their way to becoming a team to reckon with in the East.

Imagine Fultz getting buckets, with Joel Embiid in the post, Ben Simmons distributing and Dario Saric flat making plays. Wow.
