Following Potential 2020 draftees

If we are to believe the Hawks thing then I'm guessing the prospect would be Killian Hayes.
I'd say Hayes or Okoro. If teams go for Edwards, Wiseman, Okongwu, Avdija and Ball as the rumors suggest, then Hayes and Okoro could be there at #6. Might even be Patrick Williams if they believe in developing him. Remember it was Dennis Lindsey who fell in love with Kawhi Leonard.
 
I saw a tweet of his where he listed what he thought would be the most likely positions the Jazz will draft for. PG was 4th, behind a 3&D wing, a stretch big and something I forgot. He made it a point to state that the Jazz were unlikely to draft a PG. That does apply I would think.
I found the tweet and he was talking about the player type the Jazz would select at 23. Perhaps it would be different if they move up, but he also mentioned an Atlanta trade to move up to 6th isn’t even a rumor. There’s nothing there.

Iyeah, it's unlikely they trade for 6 as well. If they trade for 6, I would say that changes what they are going to "likely" do.
 
FYI, Dallas likes Mike Conley and really wants an expiring contract like his to set them up for FA in 2021. They'd want to move THJ and Delon Wright.
Not sure that moves the needle for ATL though.
Jazz might consider something like this if they were sure they could re-sign Rudy. They wouldn't want Dallas chasing Rudy as a FA.
 
I think we done locked in on Woodard. If Locke has another 10 mentions of him this week on the pod we will know.


IT certainly would be consistent with Dennis Lindsey's M.O. of drafting the biggest wingspan available. Woodard is 6'4.5 without shoes and has 7'0" wingspan. Also, the San Antonio Spurs like Woodard.

Small schools and overseas are the best chance to get a top 10 pick (talent wise) later in the draft.

Yikes, he's as short (or shorter) than Brantley? That's not great.
 
For whatever it's worth this was posted on Hawks reddit by someone claiming to be Hawks insider:





So... Jazz aparently want to trade up to that 5-6-7 range for someone specific. If that's the case then who is that player you guys think?

Also... what would it take to trade up to 6? I don't really feel like we have enough to trade that far up. Bogdanovic? Do they want Bogdanovic? Do we want to trade him?Can we extract value out of Conley's expiring via 3 team trade? What about Cleveland or Detroit? If we've contacted Atlanta, chances are we've done it with other teams in that range in case our guy falls there too?

Who might we be targeting? Okoro? Toppin? Hayes? Haliburton? Maledon?

Rumors are Ball has been stinking up the interviews and meetings with teams and might be falling... can it be him?

Amid this long post, it mentions the Hawks may have their eye on a 19+ ppg scorer. Tobias Harris would fit. Maybe a 3-way with Conley could be involved if Jazz looking to move up (though I haven't figured out what might fit for each side -- and I don't really believe this reddit post; it's just fun to think about a bit.)

When you way "19+ ppg scorer," which is kind of an odd thing to say, it sounds a lot like Buddy Hield. I don't think anyone is in a hurry to take Tobias Harris' contract.
