Breaking: Kevon Looney has just declared for the draft.



Good news as I think the reports were he was on the fence and without a good showing in the tourney.. him declaring should bolster the draft somewhat.

I really hope someone in front of us falls in love with Looney. If Looney and Turner can go before we pick we will get to pick between the Tank or Porzingis and whatever wing was left.

Once the tournament is over yeah I think guys like Looney and Oubre could rise in workouts...

Good measurements, good athletic testing, look good playing in an empty gym or against chairs... i think you might be right.
 
Chad Ford has only limited credibility, but right now he thinks the Jazz would draft Turner ahead of Kaminsky. The lotto machine yields mostly Turner and Oubre at 12. Jazz need to get up a couple draft spots.

With the emergence of Hood these last 10+ games it gives me confidence that he could potentially be paired with Hayward going forward at the starting SG position. Hood is probably a late lottery pick in this draft.


May be we can actually take a flyer on guys like Oubre or Turner (low floor, high ceiling)?

The other side of the coin is the Jazz won't be able to afford everyone going forward, so you need guys that can contribute on a minuscule salary.
Oubre and Turner are probably 3 years away from playing heavy minutes.

The issue to me is that they need playing time to develop. I wouldn't want to give either guy a lot of rotation minutes especially Turner. Oubre maybe?

I'd much rather have Stanley Johnson, Mario Hezonja, or Frank playing 15ish minutes with us next year.
