Fultz could be the rare early pick to actually be a factor on a playoff team. Philly and Minnesota need him badly and aren't far away from being legitimate playoff teams.
If Embiid could ever stay healthy, Philadelphia would be dangerous. Embiid, Simmons, Saric, and Fultz would be a dangerous team. They would probably trade Okafor but he could be good in an Enes Kanter role.
I think with Embiid, they just have to hope he can string a season or two of being healthy. Nobody can handle him.
It's a shame because Embiid would be an all time great if he could stay healthy. By the advanced stats, Philadelphia this year is a 55 win team with him on the floor and one of the worst without.
Boston is another interesting scenario, although Fultz would likely have a lesser role initially with Boston, even after they trade Smart or Bradley.
