Should Cody spend time in the G LEAGUE

Should Cody Williams get sent down to the Stars for a stint?

Some dude dropped 52 last night for the Memphis JVs in the GLeague last night. He was a late 2nd round pick from UConn a 6'5" two guard.

To be fair, Bronny is definitely worse, but damn, he has been bad.

Nepotism at it's finest.

I wonder how high Cody would've gotten drafted if Jalen wasn't playing so well in OKC. Wasn't expecting him to be a world beater as a rookie but the lack of motor is a real concern.

Right now my money is on Flip being the best of the recent Ainge draftees and he was picked in the 2nd round.

The Jazz have never drafted a complete bust (which I will define as struggling to get a 2nd contract or getting no minutes on his 2nd contract) in the lottery. Will Hendricks or Williams be the first?

Exum/Kanter werent great but they had long careers and ended up being viable role players. Same with Burks/Brewer. Lyles/Humphries to a lesser extent.

Luther Wright and Quincy Lewis, Morris Almond, Curtis Borchard, and Kirk Snyder all come to mind. Lol

And for the Jazz to tank their asses off to get it. And that the cost of that tanking means that the Jazz are kinda forced to keep tanking through ‘26 or lose better odds of landing a good player in other drafts (‘25 >>> ‘24, Jazz essentially lose the right to get the ‘26 super swap with Cleveland and Minnesota).

Remember when Cody “fell” to the Jazz and the Jazz ran to the podium? Lol, how can these professionals be so bad at this?

What a ****ing debacle. Strap in for two years of tanking and say good bye to Lauri.
 
You're lost in the sauce if you think the pick was bad because of the 26 super swap lol.

One quick aside. I think they got some blowback from the weird messaging they had with Taylor so maybe tried to spin things differently with Cody. Maybe they really were over the moon about him. The draft is hard so if he sucks I won't kill them for that. The idea of a do it all wing is at least a smart thing to try and get there I guess. I am still scarred from the Udoka pick where everything was wrong immediately... so I lowered the bar lol. I really wanted Carter there and it would have been kind of perfect as he could chill for a few months and recover from his injury while we sift through other prospects. Topic kinda makes sense for the same reasons. I wouldn't have taken Mccain that early. Knecht would have been in the mix... I think the process was fine and sometimes you just miss.

Not giving up on Cody... I'm going to hold firm for at least 12-15 months before making a definitive judgement. Also will acknowledge it looks rough right now.

Keyonte will be a 20 ppg guy. Whether he plays meaningful defense is TBD. That's a good pick. I like Flip too though.
