Could the top player in the NBA Draft really end up in a Philadelphia 76ers uniform?
Markelle Fultz, the 6-foot-4 stud point guard from the University of Washington and projected No. 1 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, met with multiple teams at the Draft Combine, including the New York Knicks, Los Angeles Lakers and the 76ers.

Fultz, unlike Lonzo Ball, showed up in Chicago for interviews and spoke with the top eight teams in the lottery (the Knicks are seeded seventh), according to his manager Keith Williams.
Boston (via the Nets), Phoenix, the Lakers and Philadelphia have the four best chances to win Tuesday’s Draft Lottery, with the Knicks at No. 7.
Fultz averaged 23.2 points 5.7 rebounds, and 5.9 assists for the Huskies.
