Following Potential 2018 Draftees

Nightmare scenario here: Brown, Frazier, Evans, and Okobo are all off the board by 21. Those are probably my 4 favorite fits for Utah.

It's a good sign tho that my nightmare scenario still lands us Huerter. Only way it could really get worse is if Sexton or Williams drops to 21 instead of Huerter. If that happens tho then I'd be looking at KBD or Grayson. Maybe Okogie.

So you're not an Okobo guy? KBD would be a good pick for us. Or a project like Okogie or Simons. I might go Simons.
 
Im thoroughly amused by Okobo's apparent rise. He entered last years draft too ya know. Theres gotta be some mocks i did in 2017 that have pretty much many of the players people want at 21 all in different spots that were higher than the conensus at the time. Chandler Hutchinson and DiVicenzo and Okobo were guy's id have near 60 before they were on any of the big site mocks. I used to put Huerter as the 30th pick in the 1st. had a good feeling bout all 4 from the initial eye test.

I remember coming across okobo looking for the top international pg on dx's 1998-born list and he was ranked like 35th or 37th overall but he had the rrame and could shoot off the dribble and flashes a well rounded skillset
 
That's why I like the 21st pick tho, even if the draft turns out about as bad as it possibly could, the Jazz should still get a player I like.

My true nightmare is the Jazz draft Aaron Holiday or Jalen Brunson. Then I would be in a dark dark place.
