Suns' Tyler Ulis: Leads bench in scoring Friday

Ulis supplied 14 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), two rebounds and two assists over 21 minutes in Friday's 112-107 preseason win over the Mavs.

Analysis:

The rookie broke out with his best performance over the first five preseason tilts, showing once again why he may be able to make some meaningful contributions as his first pro campaign unfolds. Ulis will initially have a steep climb to appreciable playing time with Eric Bledsoe and Brandon Knight in front of him, but his effective outside shot should progressively help him carve out more minutes over time. Ulis' health will be an ongoing concern however, as his 5-foot-10, 150-pound frame will leave him vulnerable any time he's on the floor.
