Some mock drafts now say the former Wildcat may be selected in the second round.

Bruce Pascoe That Azuolas Tubelis wasn’t named on the NBA’s official draft withdrawal list Thursday was no surprise. Arizona already confirmed he’s gone by building a full 13-player roster for next season without the Lithuanian forward.

ESPN said Thursday its latest mock draft replaced seven players who were projected to be drafted but withdrew, and while its updated mock draft still didn’t include Tubelis, ESPN moved him up to No. 66 on its overall “best available” list of draft prospects. “I shot a lot of 3s before the combine... and yeah, my shot is getting better," Tubelis told the Star. “I'm not afraid to shoot. At Arizona I didn't shoot that much. I wasn't really used to just catch and shoot 3s. But 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.”

“I just don't want to sit on the bench,” Tubelis said. “I want to go where I was playing. I want to be like a role player, not the 10 to 11 player who sits on the bench.”
