Markelle Fultz is back, and don’t look now, but the explosive rookie could make the NBA Playoffs very interesting.
The Philadelphia 76ers announced Monday evening that the No. 1 overall pick had been cleared to play, and Brett Brown said Fultz will come off the bench.

According to Chris Haynes of ESPN.com, Fultz would not be on a minutes restriction, but his fitness level and situation of the game would dictate how much he played.
Fultz, who has not played since October after appearing in four games and being shut down due to a shoulder injury, appeared to have found his stroke.

The Process was in full motion as the 76ers crushed the Denver Nuggets, their winning streak is still intact, and Fultz's return. 76ers fans even serenaded Fultz with his very own SKOL chant.
