29) San Antonio Spurs – Tyler Ulis (PG)

Previous ranking: 14

If Ulis were, say, three inches taller, he’d be a top-ten pick. As it is, he’s 5’10” but with enough game to be considered a legitimate potential successor to the aging Tony Parker.

I'm not sure how a Version 1.0 can have a previous ranking.

In draftexpress he's currently at 33 just today. The Spurs doing so much research on him.... If he's expected to fall and they can't swing a trade up, it's possible this is they guy they target. Not a fan but he could be a Patty Mills replacement if he's dealt for a player.

[The Great Fantastic]

If the Spurs want a high BBIQ undersized guard, Fred VanVleet may end up undrafted and become available for a training camp invitation.

I watched a lot of Wichita St over the past four years and I would love for the Spurs to bring in Van Vleet and Baker. They won't be stars in the NBA, but they are two tough-minded, heady role players who will scrap every single night and bring intensity on the defensive end of the court.

So I haven't seen enough of college ball this season, is his hip issue legitimate, or overblown? Size isn't everything, but under 6'O". Bleh.

Under 6' I can live with (not that I like it), it's the 150 lbs that just won't be able to handle it in the NBA. I hope we don't draft him, because I suspect he busts. Every recent and decent tiny player in NBA history had muscle for his size. Nate Robinson and Isiah Thomas both come in at 180+lbs at 5'9".

Don't want Ulis at all

[TrainOfThought5]

No more tiny PGs, and undersized PF/C's

I am a big Kevin Pelton fan, but I am not an Insider.

How often do guys play two years at UK? Well, Ulis did and was a top college PG last year. Tony Parker is 34. Ulis = his future replacement.

[ninjaskrzypek]

This kid and Kay felder are both true point guards who are both very short. The difference is one is potentially the lightest prospect in draft history while Felder is a ball of muscle. Why draft ullis in the first round when you can get felder in the second? Mark my words, Felder will be the better NBA prospect.

Cuz the Spurs don't have a second.
