Markelle Fultz appears to respond to article
Markelle Fultz appeared to respond to a lengthy article about him via Twitter on Tuesday.
The 2017 No. 1 draft pick by the Philadelphia 76ers tweeted the following statements Tuesday:
You can’t believe everything you hear
— Markelle Fultz (@MarkelleF) February 13, 2018
Stop capping !!!

Fultz seems to be dismissing some of the article and saying that people are lying (capping is slang for lying).
The Philly Voice’s Kyle Neubeck put together a comprehensive article that was published on Monday regarding Fultz’s status. In his article, Neubeck quotes some sources and seems to point the finger at Fultz’s trainer, Keith Williams, for altering the top pick’s shot. The article says the Sixers even want to use virtual reality to help Fultz get his shot back.
Neubeck notes that while he was able to speak to people surrounding Fultz as well as some from the 76ers, the only one who isn’t talking is Fultz. And for now, this remains the only thing we’ll hear from the guard unless he chooses to actually address the media.
