It's easy to see why the team would be frustrated, especially considering they've gone to fairly great lengths to support Fultz over the past year or so. Obviously, the handling of this wasn't done by the former No. 1 pick, but issues with agents can lead to trouble down the line in some instances.

Report: 76ers not rushing to trade Fultz.
Don’t count on seeing Markelle Fultz traded anytime soon, a new report says. According to Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer, there is no urgency within the Philadelphia 76ers’ organization to trade Fultz quickly. Part of this is down to the player’s trade value being at an all-time low, and the team is not keen on receiving little of value in exchange for the former first overall selection. In addition, some members of ownership are not enthusiastic about trading Fultz at all.
