@UCFKnightsOnSI: “Former @UCF_MBB guard Themus Fulks has signed with the Los Angeles Clippers’ Summer League squad. Fulks collaborated with the Knights’ post on Instagram.”
Fulks will likely have a chance to prove himself at NBA Summer League.
Based on his play last season, he will be worth keeping an eye on for Clippers fans.
