In early National Basketball Association mock draft speculation for 2018, Michael Porter Jr.is the top pick.
Thursday was a big night for Fultz, who was selected No. 1 overall by the Philadelphia 76ers in the 2017 NBA Draft.
Fultz was all set to become a Celtic, but on Monday the pick was officially dealt to Philadelphia.
"I mean, it's extremely gratifying for me to be in that top five, and we already knew that this was going to be a pretty tough draft and it was pretty loaded at the point guard position, and for me to be up there is just a blessing", Fox said.
Fultz is one of dozens of freshmen college players to be selected in Thursday's Draft.
Porter Jr.is considered by many analysts to be the top overall pick in the draft class, but that really could depend on who has that pick next year. Now they add Fultz to a promising young core that includes Rookie of the Year finalists Joel Embiid and Dario Saric, plus Ben Simmons, the top pick from last year who sat out all season with a foot injury.
