Markelle Fultz's NBA Destination?
247Sports

With the NBA draft a couple of days away, questions have been brought up as to where Markelle Fultz will end up.

In early mock drafts, Markelle Futlz seemed to be the number one pick for the Boston Celtics.

Fultz who has the same alma mater as Celtic guard, Isaiah Thomas, has made it public he would love to play for Boston. Boston have met with Fultz for a workout but are also considering Kansas forward, Josh Jackson.

However, with less than a week from the June 22nd deadline, many teams have had some interest in the freshman from Washington University.

Futlz recently had his workout with the Los Angeles Lakers and the front office apparently loves him. Lakers' president of basketball operations, Magic Johnson, is starstruck after seeing Fultz participate through the teams workouts. The Lakers are now thinking of trading their number two pick and forward Julius Randle to Boston in order to secure Fultz at the number one spot.

If the Lakers are able to land Fultz, it might help them speed up their rebuilding process. In Fultz's lone year at Washington he averaged 23.2 points, 5.9 assists, 5.7 rebounds and 1.6 steals per game. Although it is very unlikely the Celtics would pass on the scoring guard, the Lakers have been doing their homework on him. However, the Celtics have also considered drafting Fultz and utilizing him in a trade. As of late, they have been in contact with the Sixers on possibly swapping their number one pick for Philly's third.

Fultz's potential in the league could be limitless, however, his NBA team destination is not set in stone.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
