Since I know the Jazz fans love white players. Keep an eye on redshirt frosh For the Illini, Michael Finke. 6foot10, from a hoops family, Sweet shot and is improving. This would be a pick few years away but since yall love the white gusy keep an eye on him.

you think he's better than Ethan Happ on Wisconsin? Or Moritz Wagner on Michigan? How about Luke Kornet on Vandy??

I've watched the Illini a few times this year, and Finke's hit a 3 in every game -- I'll check out this game where he drops 25 in a bit. In the ISU game I watched he got in foul trouble quick;y. It really sucks for them Mike Thorne wen't down, they coulda been a possible early round upset type of team.

If Happ develops a jump shot he is my man in 3 years.

As someone who doesn't follow the NCAA closely outside of March Madness, top prospects, & potential Jazz targets, who should I be keeping an eye on? Obviously it's difficult to predict where Utah will pick due to the Gobert injury, but the FO's M.O. has clearly been to select high-character players who fit our system & also have high ceilings. I know it's extremely early to be asking this, but what players could fit that description within the #10-20 range?

Even with Gobert's injury we should still at least grab the 8th seed which in years past I would have rather missed and drafted higher, but this year is the year for that 8th seed. I kind of like Zimmerman or Luwawu around 15th right now.
 
If the season ended today the Jazz would be in the playoffs and the lottery. 7th seed and the 14th worst record in the league.
 
Finke on Illionis does look like a decent find, I like how he shoots, he stays aligned well. He's kinda hunched over at times, kinda runs funny but he's not all that limited in college. Probably a safe bet to be better than players like Wiltjer and Uthoff after a few years of college ball.

Taurean Waller-Prince is definetly back into the 1st round after that performance vs Vandy. He just makes things happen.

Wade Baldwin IV has a chance to move into the top-20. I can see why he was overlooked by the scouting services at first, because he's kinda upright in his movements, He's very very efficent though, I like the way he sees the game, I'd say he really looks like a floor general this season. He's also clearly a late-bloomer, and his shooting is one of the aspects of his game thats really improved.

Wasn't too impressed by Damian Jones, He's got potential though.

Happ has the benefit of having a great coach who develops players. So to me he be the best of the group. I like Finke future more then Wagner and Kornet. Just imagine how Finke could progress if he had some decent coaching.
