Tyler Ulis' tattoos want to see the latest mock drafts
5. Minnesota Timberwoles: Jamal Murray
18. Detroit Pistons: Skal Labissiere
24. Philadelphia 76ers: Tyler Ulis
Murray teaming up with Karl Towns? Heck yes. "Murray's off-the-ball game would seemingly fit perfectly with Karl-Anthony Towns, Andrew Wiggins, and Ricky Rubio," Bodner writes. "Whether new head coach and president of basketball operations Tom Thibodeau believes he can mold Murray into a plus defensive player will be the biggest question." [USA Today NBA mock draft: Need vs. best available]Meanwhile, CBS Sports' Sam Vecenie did his own lottery simulation, which has Tyler being drafted above Skal:
4. Philadelphia 76ers: Jamal Murray
14. Chicago Bulls: Tyler Ulis
17. Memphis Grizzlies: Skal Labissiere.
Right now, I think we can all agree that Ulis to the Bulls is just perfect. "Ulis just fits Chicago at this point, and that's even beyond it being his home town," Vecenie writes. "He fits the roster, as he'd provide a steady hand with Derrick Rose. He fits the Fred Holberg offense, given his terrific play in the pick-and-roll and passing acumen. He fits the mentality of the roster, as a tough, hard-nosed kid who's had to work for everything he's ever gotten. Basically, this is just the right team at the right time for Ulis." Now let's make it happen. [CBS Sports: NBA Mock Draft 2016]
