Following Potential Draftees - 2019 (not kidding)

Bazley is a huge risk. . . but I have a hard time seeing him not being a one and done, lottery caliber talent if he would’ve stayed at Syracuse for his freshman season. I’m totally fine with the Jazz taking a chance on him. Would absolutely love to see what Johnny Bryant and the rest of the Jazz developmental staff could do with his development.

I feel like his odd pathway to the draft and a year off have killed where his projection ought to be. Boom or bust, but #23 is a great spot to take those kind of chances.

Did you see him play today?

No. I had to work. How’d he do? I’ve been following him since back when he announced he was going to play in the G-league (especially since the Stars got the first pick shortly after he announced that.) He’s always been a kid that impressed me.

He was impressive. He's going to look good in workouts--quick, explosive, good first step, good handle, plays defense, etc.

Great. I'm a fan. Would LOVE to have the Jazz pick him. I 100% believe that he would be out of reach for Utah if he had gone to Syracuse for a year.
 
Interesting sleeper is DaQuan Jeffries from Tulsa. 6'5 can shoot, can defend, do a bit of everything, and he's very explosive, definitely over 40" vert. 22 y/o senior.

Anyone know if Utah's had him in to workout?

One of the reasons I really wanted us to draft Anfernee Simons last year.

ugh.... I sat here and posted about Anfernee Simons literally years ahead of time, then he falls, and immediately looks like a steal.... Good for Portland, idk what else to say... Fell right in their laps...

I'll get off it soon, but Bazley is the kind of guy I really like -- 6'9", 7' wingspan, 37" vertical, good first step, tight handle, nice high shot release, drives with good balance and a low center of gravity.

I don't know if the Jazz have the balls to draft him, but he has the talent to be really good. We'd be lucky to get him at #23.

I like this!

Bazley has always been extremely impressive to me. When I first realized he should definitely be int he top-10 of that HS class, I thought he was lottery bound.


2 years away but I'd bet you'll also be a big fan of Isaiah Todd, and he's legit 6'10.
