CHICAGO — Markelle Fultz, the 6-foot-4 point guard from the University of Washington who is the projected No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft, met with multiple teams here at the NBA Draft Combine, including the Knicks, Lakers and 76ers.
Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer first reported that Fultz met with the eight teams with the best chances to win Tuesday’s NBA Draft Lottery, adding that the point guard did not meet with Orlando.
Boston (via the Nets), Phoenix, the Lakers and Philadelphia have the four best chances to win Tuesday’s Draft Lottery, with the Knicks at No. 7.
Fultz, who finished the season averaging 23.2 points 5.7 rebounds, and 5.9 assists, won’t be at the Combine for workouts Thursday and Friday and won’t address the media.
He attended a Knicks game in April and told reporters it would be “amazing” to play at Madison Square Garden.
