Would Ainge have taken Tatum #1? Lakers with Ball at #2?
We can only speculate. What I know is Fultz was the consensus #1 by the majority. And he was just what Philly needed - a combo guard to run next to Simmons.
Ainge saw something in Fultz's workouts. My question is why didn't Colangelo see this?
Not hating on the kid. Reserving judgment until next season - when he gets the summer league/offseason/exhibition games. He comes in looking like this next October? i.e. a deer in the headlights who needs to be pampered and babied and can't hit an outside shot (which is the main reason he was picked) - then I have concerns.
He wasn't number one for Boston. If he was, they wouldn't have made the trade.
