Following Potential 2025 Draftees

It looks like I'm going to have a few guys way higher than consensus. I'm honestly pretty comfortable with that this year.
Aggregate 2025 NBA Mock Draft 5.0: Top 5 solidifies, Walter Clayton Jr. rises

I think the Jazz are going to make multiple moves around the draft. I think all the picks, other than the top pick, will be fluid.

I think we have a lot of competent playmakers if they're playing their appropriate slot, but everyone is shifted up at least one in the usage pecking order from where they'd ideally be.
High TOV% doesn’t necessarily mean bad playmaking or bad offense. With Conley, the Jazz were a top 4 offense and 25th in TOV rate. It’s just the nature of a Will Hardy offense to be higher turnover, and that’s fine. I think it’s true that we have an offense that will result in more turnovers (not necessarily bad) and players who are more turnover prone (what do you expect).
We were the worst team in the league, so our list of issues is very long. High turnovers is not something high on my priority list of concerns. Not a believer in drafting for need anyways.

Jazz were not the worst team. The Wizards were.
Ah, this totally changes things. The Jazz don’t actually have a long list of things to improve on.
Off Topic:
But it's crazy to me the Saints drafted a 25 year old QB who had one good full season at the college level over Shadeur Sanders. I get Deion is annoying, but I could never see something like that happening in the NBA Draft.

The whole league is avoiding Sanders right now. It's supposedly his attitude and demeanor. There must be some serious red flag. Being an edgy ******* isn't a bad thing for a QB.

His name is Knueppel and he looks like a character from Harry Potter, but he's probably the best shooter in the draft and he's got some real playmaking, like a bigger, chunkier Hornacek. He also moves his feet on defense. I'm probably underestimating this guy. I think he has to go ahead of Fears. He could challenge for the top 5 if something goes wrong with one of the other guys.

He's Brice Sensabaugh with handle and a high IQ/feel.
He moves better than Brice and plays harder.
I could see an argument for Kon at #5.
There he goes. 5th round to Cleveland.

Long video of all Beringer plays (makes and misses).
He actually has surprisingly good footwork and I think his jumper has potential.
At 6:39 he has a slow step Euro in transition that's extremely Giannis.
French center Beringer to enter NBA draft
French center Joan Beringer, a projected top-20 pick, will enter the 2025 NBA draft, he told ESPN Friday.
Oh and he officially declared for the draft.
Also Beringer claims he is 6'11 without shoes in the article. DX says his wingspan is 7'5. That puts him a good deal bigger than his most common comp, Daniel Gafford. 2nd youngest player in the draft. Going to grow into his frame well.

At 10:50 Beringer has to take a contested mid-rage C&S off shot clock pressure. Actually gets it off cleanly and it doesnt look bad. He misses, but it's probably the best look at his mechanics under pressure I've seen.
