Huge wingspans for both Jazz picks: Jarrell Brantley is 6-foot-7, but with a 7-foot-2 wingspan Justin Wright-Foreman is 6-foot-0.5 in shoes, but with a 6-foot-7.5 wingspan

Miye Oni is 6-foot-5.75 with a 6-foot-10.75 wingspan

Wing span has replaced the balance test for Dennis' evaluations. I think we can thank Trey Lyles for that.

These guys may or may not work out.

Wisdom like that makes my dick break concrete.

I'm notorious for being critical when we fail to make moves.

I appreciate the FO taking the time to work out the "diamond in the rough" unknown guys throughout the predraft process. I also appreciate the effort to get multiple players even if all in the last 10 selections. Getting those guys is a signal of intent. Spending that money (on two picks - #50 and #58) shows a willingness to build and take chances.

All three picks are intriguing. All are long, athletic, interesting prospects brimming with potential.

I appreciate the positive attitude and hope for the best for all three guys, but I'm quite disappointed with this draft. Getting a few guys in the 50s that would most likely have gone undrafted otherwise shows no agressiveness, just a willingness to dabble in the margins. Agressive would have been securing a mid to high second round pick the day before the draft. After step 1 in bringing in Conley I had hoped for a step 2 that would consist of getting at least 1 guy that can come in and play. I hope I'll be proven wrong, but this looks like summer league or G-league fodder.
But I'll accept it for now on the assumption that the Jazz front office is more knowledgeable than I.

He’s black.

Nothing like a little bit of racism to get a laugh.

What ****ing loser you are. Get a ****ing life.

Jazz Gal still thinks Zion is a stuck-up, full of himself, douche.

Me too

So the Jazz have Mike Conley coming, drafted and/or traded for 4 from the second round and yet some of you are still complaining about lack of aggressivity from the FO. The Jazz have already proven that they can take questionable players and make them actual players i.e. Jingles, Royce, so have a little faith. And show some freaking optimism. Or don't. Either way, Conley is coming so we'll see you at the parade in June, or earlier at a game. Also, I believe the Jazz will somehow get another difference maker, but we are going to lose one in Favors.
