Sergey Karasev, Mike Muscala drawing interest from Jazz

[A-Train (old)]

Thoughts on how high the Cavs need to go up to get Karasev?

Chad Ford:

Trying to figure that out right now. I have him going to the Cavs at No. 19 in my mock, but feedback I'm getting is that he's got a team higher on the board that will take him. OKC, Dallas, Utah, Milwaukee and Atlanta are also possibilities. They all like him.

Lot of talk about Mike Muscala out of Bucknell. Whose game do you liken his to?

Chad Ford:

Not sure who is comp is ... sort of a poor man's Pau Gasol. Getting looks in the first round as high as 21.

Chad Ford had his chat today as usual, nothing really important relating to the Jazz other than these two. Did mention that if Oladipo and Porter are gone by #5 the Suns would take McCollum.

Phoenix taking McCollum at #5...

Draft day is going to be bonkers.

That would put McCollum ahead of Bennett and Len. Oladipo/McLemore/Noel/Porter/...McCollum

It's possible that Burke is the 3rd PG taken in this draft.

Yes, it really is. Ultimately see him being the 2nd one taken though.

By us?

I think we'd have to move up to get Burke, but he's not out of reach.

The Kings really like Carter-Williams at #7.

Detroit would probably take Shabazz over a PG.

That gets Burke as far as #9.

Minny likes Caldwell-Pope at 9, and Portland probably wouldn't take Burke to put next to Lillard.

Philly and OKC need bigs more than anything.

That gets Burke to Dallas at #13, but I wouldn't trust them to keep their pick and pass on him.
