The UA star has until May 31 to decide if he'll stay in NBA Draft, return to school or possibly even head overseas.
Bruce Pascoe CHICAGO — During his three seasons at Arizona, Azuolas Tubelis always told it like it is and rarely used more than a few words at a time doing so.
When it came to the NBA Combine this week, Tubelis was also matter-of-fact. He summed it up pretty much the way analysts, scouts and media have for years: It’s about the interviews between team officials and players as much as anything that happens on the floor. Tubelis declined to say which teams he has spoken with — “My agent said I’m not supposed to tell you guys,” he said with a smile — though he did sell himself to media in a manner that he likely has during those meetings with team officials.
Then Tubelis laughed. He was joking about the Curry thing, of course. But shooting 3s a little more often is one thing Tubelis said he’s been aiming to add this spring. “I shot a lot of 3s before the combine," Tubelis said. “And, yeah, my shot is getting better. I'm not afraid to shoot. At Arizona, I didn't shoot much. I wasn't really used to just catch and shoot 3s and now I'm working on it, off the dribble, off the trail, all that stuff. It's been working out good so I’m happy.”
