Markelle Fultz Thread (Merged)

[kozlodoev]

I don't like Ball, I do not want Ball, but what is written about him here was written years ago about another ucla player. That player is in the Basketball Hall of Fame today.

No Ball, his father, or his thousand-dollar shoe. Ugh.

not that this is important, but it is news.

Source: The Boston Celtics front office will be interviewing projected #1 pick Markelle Fultz this evening at the NBA Combine.

Besides 2nd round talent I wonder just how many of the top talent Boston will bring in to interview and workout if they get the top puck or pick #2. top.

If we get top pick, I would think we would bring in the top 4 guys.  And all 4 would come, naturally.

maybe bring in top 10 to 12, for a pair of reasons.

one, ainge may find someone he likes more than the "usual suspects." work outs may make a difference and move a player up or down on the celtics' list.

two, a trade may come up that has the celtics trading down in the draft. so ainge will want to be prepared, just in case.

Which is why I question how many players he brings in. If its just 4 or 5, he isn't trading down and if its just 1 or 2 maybe its just 3-5 players maybe its because he will make the pick for either the Celtics or someone else.

Interview at the combine!

Also, do the Lakers pick Lonzo before Ball??

My guess, and I am usually right, is that they pick both at the same time

In an Sports Illustrated feature, top NBA draft prospect Markelle Fultz lets us in on what makes him tick, from his budding rivalry with Lonzo Ball to the varsity snub that drives his greatness to how he still wrestles with his mom.

If we land him, I hope his knees are not shot.

[SHAQATTACK]

Markelle ....got game

thats all.

[moiso]

Yeah, I'm still not clear on what was wrong with his knees.  Wasn't it just called soreness and not an actual injury?  That's scary.  It almost seems better if he had an injury and then recovered.
