My Take
Tyler Ulis is my favorite kind of basketball story. At 175 cm he is supposedly too small for the pro game, and that is exactly why I find him compelling. He was named 2016 SEC Player of the Year at Kentucky, outthinking and outpacing rooms full of giants on pure floor vision and tempo. Small guards see the court differently, and I love the cleverness that smallness forces. That he has moved into coaching, sharpening the next generation at Arkansas, fits him perfectly: a player whose whole identity argued that size is not destiny now teaching others to believe it too.
