A SHORT Look at Tyler Ulis’ BIG Potential

Ulis is listed at 5’10”, but having met Tyler personally, and being 5’11” myself, I’d have to say his 2016 NBA Combine numbers appear to be more accurate. Listed at 5’8 3/4″ without shoes on, Ulis has had to deal with concerns about his height throughout his basketball life. He would have likely been a much higher draft pick if he had prototypical point guard size. In fact, he may have been drafted higher had he merely been at least six-feet tall. Luckily for Phoenix, he fell to them at pick #34, and the Suns believe Ulis has adapted his game to turn his vertical limitations into a sizable benefit.
