After nobody picked him up as a free agent following last season with the Orlando Magic, Fultz has been signed by the Sacramento Kings, who will look to the former No. 1 overall pick to help fill some of the point guard void left behind by the trade of De'Aaron Fox to the San Antonio Spurs.

Fultz, 26, joins Sacramento as their newest point guard after the Fox trade, which netted scorer Zach LaVine and draft compensation. The Kings (27-26) hope Fultz will help their postseason push, as the team currently sits in the No. 9 seed in the Western Conference just before the NBA's All-Star break.

Free agent guard Markelle Fultz has agreed to a deal with the Sacramento Kings, his agent Raymond Brothers of I AM Sports & Entertainment told ESPN. Kings have searched to find a point guard – and land a deal with the former No. 1 overall pick.
