2021 NBA Draft Preview (new thread)

Just want to reiterate that I think Petrusev is a 1st-round caliber prospect. He's a no-brainer if the Jazz can pick him up in the mid-2nd round. He's a stretch big who can play 4 or 5. He has some limitations defensively, but if you want someone with a Vucevic-type skillset, Petrusev could be the guy.
 
I like JT Thor but still raw and an unpolished prospect with a good upside. However, the Jazz probably looking for someone that could bring in immediate help and is ready to help the team. Thor will probably fall like Bol Bol did and get picked in the 40s.

Guys like that are almost always better second draft guys. If I felt like he was a worker I'd have no problem taking him in the first round. The physical tools are lotto talent ****... the shot goes in enough to make you think it could work a bit... He has a lot going on with the shot though. Believe me if we picked him I'd be salivating and convince myself there is no way he isn't an all star some day.
 
Jeremy Woo reporting that the Jazz are looking to move off salary and could use this pick to move off an unwanted contract.

We all know who the unwanted contract is…on the bright side, seems like they have confidence that Conley will be back.

So basically we're telling teams that if they'll take Derrick Favors off our hands, we'll throw in Josh Christopher, Ayo Dosunmu or Quentin Grimes as an expression of our gratitude. I sure hope we can get back in the 2nd round then.
 
I could see the Kings and Knicks as destinations for Favors, unless some team like the Thunder want to hold him as their mid-season trade chip this year. Mavericks could work for Favs too, but I'm not sure what Dallas gives us.

Cade Cunningham remains the projected top selection, and the top five or six picks have come into focus, but there’s still a great deal of intrigue and anticipation around the NBA going into Thursday night.

Woo article.

So are we thinking of attaching No. 30 to move off Favors and then moving Bogey/Ingles to trade back into the first?

Something’s gotta give this week, just don’t know what yet.
