Ex-Cat Ulis, undersized peers showing their stuff in NBA’s summer league

Former University of Kentucky standout Tyler Ulis is among eight players in the NBA’s Las Vegas Summer League who are shorter than 6 feet tall.

This week, Ashton Ferguson of the Las Vegas Review-Journal visited with some of those players, including Ulis, to see what it’s like trying to make it in a big man’s league.

“I feel like I’ve proven myself at the college level and high school level. But I have to do it again,” Ulis told the newspaper.

The 5-foot-10 Ulis is playing for the Phoenix Suns.
