Share

As part of our coverage leading up to the 2016 NBA Draft we will provide profiles of more than 50 prospects, including video interviews with each player, what they're saying leading up to draft day as well as their potential fit with the Bulls.

Jarrod Uthoff, SF, Iowa

6'10" | 214 lbs. | 23 years old

2015-16 stats:

18.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.5 blocks, 2.0 3-pointers, 44.8% FG

Projection:

Second round to undrafted

Quotable:

"I think I'd be best with an unselfish team, guys who move the ball and play together. I think I would want to play for that team. I think I would fit in well."

Fit for the Bulls:

Uthoff exploded in his final season with Iowa and was named an All-American for his efforts. He averaged 2.5 blocks as a senior but will find life defending on the interior more difficult in the NBA, even with his nearly 7-foot wingspan. Uthoff's best best is to latch on with an up-tempo team that plays small where his outside shooting can be used properly. The Bulls would be a solid fit for Uthoff in the second round, though he's more likely than not to go undrafted.
