Pullin (6-4, 206) has started all six of his regular season appearances for the NBA G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce and has averaged 24.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 7.7 assists and 1.3 steals in 38.3 minutes while shooting 53.5 percent from the field and 42.4 percent from 3-point range. Pullin, who ranks fifth in the NBA G League in scoring and fourth in assists during the regular season, recorded a triple-double with 37 points (14-17 FG), 12 rebounds and 11 assists in a season-opening victory over the Valley Suns on December 30.

The 24-year-old, who went unselected in the 2023 NBA Draft out of Florida, played 16 games for the Los Angeles Lakers as a rookie last season.
