Pullin, who played with the G League’ Sioux Falls Skyforce, starred at Florida last season as a graduate transfer. He was named a first-team All-SEC selection after playing in 33 games.
Pullin’s went undrafted in the 2024 NBA Draft. He was later signed to a two-way contract by the Miami Heat, only to be waived on July 24.
In six G League games this season, Pullin has averaged 24.8 points, 7.5 rebounds and 7.7 assists. He’s shooting 53.5% from the field and 42.4% on 3-pointers. The shooting, playmaking and rebound numbers all track from Pullin’s college career.
Before his one season at Florida, he played four years at UC Riverside. Pullin averaged at least four assists in his last four college seasons, and he ended his career as a 37.8% career 3-point shooter.
