Don't know if someone mentioned this before but after watching Fultz play he reminded me of CJ McCollum. He is a scorer with the abillity to play PG but more of a SG. I think best comparison for Fultz is McCollum
Fultz appears to be a much better playmaker, averaging almost 3 times as many assists per minute as McCollum.
Fultz' athletic profile is far superior as well, as evidenced by the block numbers (0.3 vs 1.5 per 40), and measurables (6'3" and 6'6" wingspan vs. 6'4 and 6'9" wingspan).
I don't get the comp.
I was talking about their style of play and not about their physical similarities. The way they shoot, the way they drive to the rim, the way they score... I saw similarities there. Maybe with 6'4 Fultz should play the PG position but he has all the tools to be great shooting guard or combo guard.
I think that is what is valuable about Fultz.
He has the offensive game (scoring wise I mean) similar to a CJ McCollum or Bradley Beal but ... unlike those two, Fultz is able to play the PG position. Both in terms of running the offense but also in terms of being able to defend and rebound their position (both McCollum and Beal are below average defender / rebounders).
That ability to play PG (offensively, defensively and rebounding wise) is what makes Fultz so much more valuable than either of those players.
It allows teams to maintain defensive integrity and quality rebounding. To field teams with physical size and length on the perimeter.
