NBA Market: Markelle Fultz finally finds a destination!

NBA Market: Free agent point guard Markelle Fultz has reached an agreement with the Sacramento Kings, as reported by his agent and lawyer, Raymond Brothers of I AM Sports & Entertainment, to ESPN.

The Kings have been in search of a point guard since the departure of De'Aaron Fox at the trade deadline and have now added Fultz, who was the first overall pick in the 2017 draft by the Philadelphia 76ers. After recovering from an injury in the offseason, the player garnered interest from several teams in recent months and ultimately chose Sacramento.

Fultz is in optimal condition and ready to play, according to his representative.

The 26-year-old point guard spent the last five and a half seasons with the Orlando Magic, where he started in two of them. In the 2022-23 season, he had his best performance, with averages of 13.9 points, 5.7 assists, 3.9 rebounds, and 29.6 minutes per game, all career highs.

However, last season was marked by injuries, limiting him to just 43 games.

The Kings, on a good streak with three consecutive wins and a record of 15-8 since the dismissal of Mike Brown and the appointment of Doug Christie as interim coach, have been using Malik Monk as their primary point guard following Fox's departure. Fultz's arrival strengthens the point guard position for a team aiming to solidify their playoff contention.
