How did the NBA combine measurements compare to the UK combine measurements?

Let's take a look:
Name Height w/o Shoes Height w/shoes Weight Wingspan Reach Body Fat Hand Length Hand Width
Skal Labissiere 6′ 10.5″ 6′ 11.75″ 216 7′ 2.5″ 8′ 9.5″ 5.7 8.75 9
6′ 10.5″ 6′ 11.50″ 225 7′ 2.0″ 9′ 0″ 8.84 10 10.25
Tyler Ulis 5′ 8.75″ 5′ 10″ 149 6′ 2″ 7′ 4.5″ 5.2 7.50 7.50
5′ 8″ 5′ 9″ 160 6′ 1.25″ 7′ 4″ 7.1 7.50 8.25
Marcus Lee 6′ 9” 6′ 10.25″ 211 7′ 3″ 8′ 11.5″ 5.4 9 9
6′ 8” 6′ 9″ 224 7′ 3″ 8′ 11″ 4.9 9.25 9.50
(Preseason combine in blue)
Judging by the numbers, all three players lost weight since last October. It also looks like Skal Labissiere's hand shrunk during his freshman season at Kentucky -- or maybe UK was generous in its measurements.   (Note: If you read this post before 11:52 am, I apologize for the confusion. I have to stop writing before my morning coffee. Happy Friday, y'all.)
