Will The Jazz Make a Draft Day Trade?

Will the Jazz Make a Trade on Draft Day?

  • Total voters
    62
  • Poll closed .
I think they will look to trade. They need to move salary and will try to cash in on guys that have value. I think Favors and Ingles will have some value around the league.

Just call em... call em everyday. Bojan for #17? I'd try to sneak #35 too.

I heard a rumor they may try and do a sign and trade of Ball for Brogdon... would make yesterday's cap dump kinda silly since they could have done that deal either way.

They couldn't do Ball (at $18 a year) for Bojan and Favors until they made that trade....



lol....

Ummm... read better. It might be Ball for Malcolm Brogdon. Which is absolutely something they could have done without clearing those salaries. Its just a rumor I heard from Zach Lowe on a pod.

I voted that we’ll move down/out. But I have a weird feeling that we have a trade-up target that we’re keeping under wraps… So all of this really means that we’re going to stand pat and pick at 30 lol

Garuba has to excite the Jazz. Jalen Johnson probably would too.

Johnson is such a hard prospect to evaluate. Sometimes you can see the crazy potential and see why he’s worth the risk. Other times it looks like he can barely stand on his feet. And his jumper is heinous. I don’t think I saw two jumpers that looked the same.

He rebounds, he defends, he handles, he's athletic. You start with that, unless you really believe he won't ever be able to shoot it.

If your flaws are catastrophic as a shooter then you can bet money they won't be able to shoot at an NBA level.

For those that go from zeroes to functional NBA shooters, they are the exceptions that prove the rule. This idea that the league is comprised of "talented" athletes that learned the basics of basketball after being drafted is a fantasy.

I’d rather move 30 and Favors for a second rounder than move Bojan to move up.

Oh for sure, but moving Favors only saves you 9 million in salary plus w/e the tax savings are. Is that really enough? If it is, I'm 100% cool with it.
 
I would change my vote to move back/out if I could. Fully expecting the Jazz to not draft til the 40's this year.
