Markelle Fultz turned 20 today and celebrated with six straight cartwheels at the Sixers’ practice facility in Camden:

Shoulder looks strong to me.

It also looked strong in this Instagram video Markelle posted over the weekend, showing off a couple of nasty dunks during offseason workouts:

That’s Fultz’s DeMatha Catholic High School near D.C. You can see the school’s cross logo with the WCAC in the paint (Washington Catholic Athletic Conference). “Home of the Stags” is written on the wall.

The Sixers need somebody who can create off the dribble this year, and maybe Fultz will look more like the player we saw at Washington during his sophomore NBA season.
