2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

I'm fine with Cody Williams. Won't be my highest available prospect, but he fills a need and has as much potential as anyone in the draft at 10.
 
Per Givony this morning:

Jazz mentioned as a team that could potentially trade up for Clingan.

Mentions Utah as the best fit for Castle if San Antonio doesn’t take him with either of their picks.

Jazz interested in Knecht who is receiving a ton of buzz in the 6-10 range.

Dillingham is in conversation for every team drafting in the top-10 that is in the market for a PG, but he might need some trade scenarios to come to fruition to aid his cause on draft night.

It’s unlikely Topic falls much farther than 14. Spurs at 8, Jazz at 10, and OKC at 12 are seen as potential landing spots.

Utah is interested in Williams but teams outside the lottery are starting to wonder if he may fall a little.

Edey is getting looks as high as 9 to Memphis and 10 to Utah.
 
It sounds as though the Jazz are looking at everybody and considering every possibility. I could believe the Jazz are trying to trade up, but I think their target would be Sheppard or one of their favorite wings, rather than Clingan. Just my opinion, but I think Clingan is, for all intents and purposes, the Jakob Poeltl of this draft. Maybe he's better in some respects, but he's basically a starting-caliber two-way big and not a whole lot more.

If you can get a starting caliber 2 way center out of this draft, you probably grab that and run though, right?

Here's Bleacher Report's latest mock ---

He has the Jazz taking Dillingham ahead of both Topic and Williams. Also shows the Jazz taking Dadiet at 29. Some of Wasserman's comps aren't bad, imo.

If Dillingham is available at 10 I'd bet the Jazz grab him. Not sure they would be keeping him for the next hour, but grabbing him there would make sense.
 
Alright... two trades... both with the Kings. They are gonna lose Monk. So JC and 10 for Huerter and 13. I think Red Velvet has a better chance at having some trade value recover than JC. I think he's better for us and worth the trade back. Maybe we get a second rounder for our trouble.

Second one. Kessler/JC/29 for Huerter/13

I know some hate Huerter but he'd give us a different look at guard.
