Point Guard // Tyler Ulis
Classification: Sophomore
Team: Kentucky Wildcats
Notable Shoes: Nike Kyrie 2, Air Jordan 9 “Anthracite,” Nike Kobe 11 “BHM”
This season, Tyler Ulis has cemented himself as one of the best point guards to ever play at the University of Kentucky and under coach John Calapari. That proverbial list is steep in notable names such as John Wall and various other non-UK alumnus such as Tyreke Evans and Derrick Rose. With his play also placing him within National Player of the Year conversations, Ulis has upped his game in style with the latest makeups of the Nike Kobe 11, along with various shades of the Nike Kyrie 2.
In addition, Ulis would also be spotted in the Air Jordan 9 “Anthracite” and Air Jordan 13 “Barons.”
