UTAH JAZZ
Topic is in the top five on a lot of draft boards, but he’s dealing with an injury so he’s been out of sight, out of mind, while some other prospects are thriving. Could he fall into Utah’s lap? Topic and Keyonte George could complement one another in the backcourt. Topic needs to iron out the wrinkles in his jumper, but George has already made great progress on that front during his rookie year. Together, the duo could be electric.
nice 3 guard rotation for a few yearsKOC writing like Sexton not in the future Jazz plans.
Guess I wasn’t so crazy after all!!!The Ringer put Sheppard at #1. I don't think it's crazy. As with Haliburton, I think we may be too concerned with the ability to translate and overlooking the talent/production.
Should be noted they have Sarr #1 on the big board but with the Spurs getting the #1 pick, they have Sheppard being the 1st overall pick.Guess I wasn’t so crazy after all!!!
I'm guessing that is the end of Jones's college career? Or do they have a chance to make one of the lower tier tourney's?Sadly Weber State lost their opening Big Sky tourney game to Montana State.

The Ringer put Stephon Castle at #4 in their latest mock. I'm going to be honest, I think Brice Sensabaugh is a better player. Brice is a more confident and versatile offensive player. His ability to get to his spots and create scoring opportunities for himself also opens up passing opportunities. He's able to use his bigger frame to compete for rebounds at a high level. So for me, the question becomes: how remarkable does Stephon Castle's defense need to be in order for the Jazz to want to play him ahead of Brice?
I guess we'll see what happens, but I'm not sure I'd make Castle a high priority if I'm the Jazz.
Famously you can only play one wing at a time, especially if they are skilled with the ball.The Ringer put Stephon Castle at #4 in their latest mock.

I completely disagree. I was a huge fan of Brice last year and if he stays healthy he has a very bright future here but that doesn't mean that we don't desperately need a guy like Castle. Defensively he is that good but also offensively he is pretty damn good and can play 3 positions comfortably. There shouldn't be a decision of having to choose Castle or Brice for minutes with the position versatility that Castle brings to the table. There are plenty of minutes to go around with hopefully Clarkson and Dunn out of the rotation.The Ringer put Stephon Castle at #4 in their latest mock.

Is he!?KOC writing like Sexton not in the future Jazz plans.
Justin Zanik said he had grown into a top 50 player. Make what you want of that. So if they do move him I’d expect it to be for a lot. Even if they took Topic you could see what you had before making major roster decisions. Plenty of duos were theoretically electric but one player or the other was a disappointment .Is he!?
