2016 Liberty Ballers Community Big Board No. 26: Bluegrass Boys

Back-to-back Kentucky products go off the board.

Mark Zerof-USA TODAY Sports

After Skal Labissiere won big board No. 24 on Tuesday, his former Kentucky teammate Tyler Ulis secured enough votes to earn the final spot in the top 25. Ulis finished with 28 percent of the 476 total votes, while Gonzaga big man Domantas Sabonis came in second with 22 percent.

His stock has dropped drastically over the past couple weeks, and the likely explanation would be concerns over his hip. Draft Express has him falling all the way to the second round at this point, but the Liberty Ballers staff ranked him as the 19th best prospect in this draft. If he does fall all the way into the second round, I think whatever team that selects him is coming away with a steal. Unless his body fails him, he's too smart of a player to flop out of the NBA in a couple years.

I'm going to bat for UNC's Brice Johnson this round. He plays bigger than is listed height, has a smooth mid-range game, and can jump through the roof. Johnson's going to make for a very solid rotational big man in the NBA.
