Following Potential 2020 draftees

A few standouts from the Combine measurements:

Tyler Bey -- 6'7" w/shoes, 7'1.25" wingspan, 213 lbs. He's just a tad smaller than Trevor Ariza.
Paul Eboua -- 6'7.5" w/shoes, 7'3.5" wingspan, 9'0" standing reach. Great size for a wing defender.
Josh Hall -- 6'7.5" w/shoes, 6'11" wingspan, 197 lbs. Worth looking into late in the 2nd round or as an UFA.
Karim Mane -- 6'6" w/shoes, 6'11" wingspan, 196 lbs. Dude is as big as Dante Exum and has some PG skills.
Reggie Perry -- 6'9.25" w/shoes, 7'0.25" wingspan, 250 lbs. Slightly bigger than Tillman.
Paul Reed -- 6'9.25 w/shoes, 7'2" wingspan, 9'1.5" standing reach, 225 lbs. Probably big enough to play some at the 5.
I'd add woodard... 6' 7" - 7' 2" Wingspan and 230 with 4.5% body fat.

Dude is built like a damn truck. I think Eboua ends up going a lot higher than his projection.
 
Now that we all love Woodard he is probably going to get drafted ahead of 23.
Somehow the ****ing Pacers will get a pick in front of us and take him... those snakes always stealing our dude.
 
Some team has reportedly given Poku a promise and got Poku to pull out of the Combine.

Jazz should know about Poku from his practices with NWG at Olympiakos.
 
A few standouts from the Combine measurements:

Precious Achiuwa -- 6'8.75" w/shoes, 7'0.75" wingspan, 234 lbs. Isn't great size for a 5. Paul Reed is bigger.
Tyler Bey -- 6'7" w/shoes, 7'1.25" wingspan, 213 lbs. He's just a tad smaller than Trevor Ariza.
Paul Eboua -- 6'7.5" w/shoes, 7'3.5" wingspan, 9'0" standing reach. Great size for a wing defender.
Josh Hall -- 6'7.5" w/shoes, 6'11" wingspan, 197 lbs. Worth looking into late in the 2nd round or as an UFA.
Theo Maledon -- 6'5" w/shoes, 6'8.75" wingspan, 187 lbs. Good measurements for him. I'd like to compare him to Haliburton, tbh.
Karim Mane -- 6'6" w/shoes, 6'11" wingspan, 196 lbs. Dude is as big as Dante Exum and has some PG skills.
Reggie Perry -- 6'9.25" w/shoes, 7'0.25" wingspan, 250 lbs. Slightly bigger than Tillman.
Paul Reed -- 6'9.25 w/shoes, 7'2" wingspan, 9'1.5" standing reach, 220 lbs. Probably big enough to play some at the 5.
Jalen Smith -- 6'10.25" w/shoes, 7'2.25" wingspan, 9'2" standing reach, 224 lbs. Comparable to Ed Davis.

Paul Reed's max vertical of 37" is not too shabby for a PF. It's just a couple inches behind Josh Smith.
Josh Hall at 37.5" max vertical is encouraging.
Philosophical question:

Why list height with shoes now that NBA has gone to listing height without (even if I don't believe in some of the revised listings)?
 
David Locke usually pumps up prospects who are slightly below the Jazz's draft range, so that when we draft someone above that person, everyone will think we scored.

It's part of managing fan expectations.
