Udoka , woof

Looks like Jazz will have to find a third center to finish season
Jazz need to carry three legit centers I think
 
Udoka seems like a guy who wasnt willing to work hard enough to truly bulletproof his body. When you're that size there really isnt much room for error. You got to be in constant top tier shape to even stay healthy and reduce the chance of your massive body injuring itself. Gobert is out there looking like Adonis, but he still has to wear robot looking knee braces every game. IT's just tough being that size.
 
The Stars got smoked tonight. I think Dok's injury shook them up, Butler looked really bad as did Hughes. The Utah State player that was drafted just ahead of Butler dominated and is kind of a thug. Carsen Edwards lead the Stars in scoring with 21.

It's in the team bylaws.
 
And thus continued our rich tradition of using second round picks to offload centers with options that never should have been picked up.

Queta has worked hard to improve. He looks like the player the Jazz hoped Doke would be.

The Jazz told Queta they had no interest in him. Not sure how good he will be, but he took a giant leap during his final season with USU.

I still think Butler was a good pickup for the Jazz.

Even without injuries to Doke, Queta is still the better, more dynamic player, and the Jazz could have had him for the cost of a two way contract if they committed to him a year earlier.
 
Doke's pick was the worst because it just makes zero sense from the get-go.

Exum sucks but the logic behind selecting him makes sense. Lyles was bad but selecting him makes sense.

Using a first round pick to get a backup center that are readily available at min deals, makes no sense.

And we did it twice, passing up guys like Derrick White, Bane, Josh Hart, Mcdaniels in the process.
