2023 NBA Draft Megathread

As a matter of practical concern, the Jazz are going to need a solid guard to be a lead ball handler. Conley's days are numbered one way or another, and the Jazz don't have anyone else who can really run a team. A guy like Cason Wallace could be high-value in the late lottery or mid-1st round. Nick Smith and Keyonte George (who might be able to play PG in a Jamal Murray kinda way) are probably top-10 guys. Another guy to keep an eye on is Terquavion Smith, who's been playing well.

Bigger guards like Ausar Thompson and Gradey Dick have some on-ball upside, but probably aren't full time lead ball handlers. Anthony Black hasn't really shown up this season yet.

I agree, if they are not going to develop Sexton in that regard, he should be traded at the deadline unless he can't be or something, and they should be looking to fill the role via trade and draft.
I would have just given Bull the keys, regardless of the growing pains, had the season not been going so great. But now that the season has gone well, and the Vets values are up, they have to decide if they are willing to sell high and go all in on blatant tanking, or just keep it status quo and maybe even become buyers

I don't think Sexton is really a high-level point guard. He's a score-first guard who likes to drive to the rim. He's not a guy who makes reads and quick decisions.
