Markelle Fultz Says This Is the Best He’s Felt In the NBAMarkelle Fultz Says This Is the Best He’s Felt In the NBA

Markelle Fultz is thankful for the opportunity he had to sign with the Sacramento Kings. Fultz said taking he first half of the season off to get right physically has him ready to contribute down the stretch.

“This is the best I’ve ever felt since being in the league,” Fultz told The Sacramento Bee. “I never had the opportunity to take my time and get healthy, so being able to do that last summer has been great for me. I’m super excited for this opportunity and I’m thankful for it.”

Fultz went unsigned until just before the All-Star break, but it wasn’t because of a lack of interest. The veteran point guard said it was his decision to wait until he was fully healthy to pick his spot.

“My knee was really bothering me, which ended up compensating and messing with my shoulder a little bit,” Fultz said. “Being able to take the summer to really rehab my knee and get my full body the way I wanted to get without having to rush anything was big for me. I’m glad I had an opportunity to do that and now I’m able to get back on the court.”

Last season, Fultz averaged 7.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists and a steal per game for the Orlando Magic.

The Warriors are limited in their ability to fill out their roster, due to being close to their first-apron hard cap. Golden State has to sign at least two players to reach the roster minimum of 14 players. However, the Warriors have just $1.4 million in room under the under their hard cap. That means maneuvering around with 10 Day contracts, until they have the ability to sign players to rest-of-season contracts.
