Would you have preferred Sexton or another 1st round draft pick?

Was just wondering..

The guy has struggle the last 3 games but before that he had a long stretch where he was playing great and he will get back to that.

This is getting ridiculous. We couldn’t have even gotten an extra pick because they couldn’t trade anything more than what they did. Besides that I will take Sexton all day. Why are people so down on him?

He’s averaging 13.3/3/2 on 46.5% from the field in 22 mins off the bench. What more are people really asking or expecting from him?

@Saint Cy of JFC would have probably preferred just a second round pick instead

Am I right or am I right? hahahaha..

It’s quite useful to have a microwave type player on a team. In the tradition of Vinnie Johnson and Jordan Clarkson: now Collin Sexton.

Sexton is already better that most 1st round picks end up.

Sexton is already better that most 1st round picks end up.

But he's not better than a player you'd trade a first round pick for

Cavs already traded their '29 FRP. They couldn't have included another FRP in the deal. The trade also doesn't work financially without Sexton's salary.

Jazz likely aren't getting a FRP for him at this point unless it's a highly protected one that usually turns into 2nds. He hasn't shown he's 100% coming off that injury.

Actually I think Jazz only paid a SRP for Clarkson back in the day but will need to look that one up.

You need to start making polls public so we can laugh at people later.

Sexton. He has potential beyond what he is doing with the speed, dribbling and scoring skills. Not John Wall upside, but still pretty solid. Might get forever stuck to the "6th man" role, but I think he has the upside to be a real quality bench scorer and situational mismatch.

Also, we have enough picks. We likely cannot even use all we got and develop everyone properly.

I like Sexton... I would have preferred a pick if I knew we were trying to be a play in team this year. He is in a new role with a new team and an actual offensive system. Maybe he never figures out how to be awesome every night but that is what is hard about being a bench player... you get a limited amount of time and the games don't always smooth out. Think about how many times JC **** the bed in the first half and then got hot in the second half. Collin doesn't get quite enough minutes/opportunities to fix it every game and is clearly trying to think out there a bit too much if you want him to be super effective every night.

He's not for everyone... I get that... take the good nights and bad nights for what they are and give him some time to work **** out.
