Markelle Fultz started his first game at point guard for the Orlando Magic during their 91-87 loss to the Denver Nuggets.

Fultz replaced DJ Augustin, who had previously started in 115 straight games for the team.

Fultz finished with 9 points and 2 assists in 25 minutes.

Steve Clifford said that Fultz's inclusion in the starting lineup gave his side a more balanced approach.

“It gives our lineup more balance. With both the first unit and the second unit, we have a better chance to play better," said Clifford.
