Yesterday the Washington Mystics took on the Indiana Fever, destroying them by 39 points. This game gained a lot of it’s media attention during the 3rd quarter. The camera cut the crowd and announced Markelle Fultz “Orlando Magic Guard 2017 #1 Overall Pick”. Only one problem with this, Markelle Fultz was not in the camera shot, it was just a random black guy sitting courtside. See the now viral tweet below:

As you can see, even Markelle himself thought the blooper moment was hilarious. Looks like they need a fact checker at the next Mystics’ game. It turned into a funny moment, but Twitter wasted no time letting Markelle Fultz why he was easily mistaken at the game. Not a good look for Fultz when people don’t know what a former #1 overall pick looks like.
