2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

With the partial tear Topic should be available le for the Jazz. It will be interesting if he is there because he may not play very much his first year as a team would probably want to make sure he is 100% health. If the Jazz passed on him then that might be signaling Ainge wants to win.

I am still a huge FAN and hope he makes the Jazz pick. He would make a great backcourt partner to George.
 
There is a good chance that Jazz can just sit on their hands and take Topic at 10. But I think the Spurs may take him at 8. If the Jazz 100% want him they should look to trade 10 for 7 (10 + 29 + future 2nd + cash for 7 and 45?).

If they want a second pick in the top ten they can probably do some maneuvering and give up a future pick. If they really value a guy and could accelerate the timeline then why not?

I think Castle or Reed in addition to Topic would be fantastic. But we would probably have to spend too much for it to happen.

Oh no, I see what you did, lol.
 
I can guarantee it won't go like that and I probably wouldn't draft McCain if I were the Jazz
Do you think Edey is there at 10? Do the Jazz pick him? Ainge sounded high on him, could be blowing smoke like he did with Fultz.

Personally when I think of relatively low ceiling guys at 10 like Knecht, who I like or Carter or Williams I can’t help but think of the matchup nightmare Edey could potentially be if things go right. Obviously there’s risk but these other options seem like a dime a dozen

I doubt it, the Jazz never pick who I have ranked as the BPA.
 
If Jazz take Edey what happens with Kessler and Lofton?
Do they keep all three?
Keep Kessler unless you get a good offer and have them fight it out. Lofton doesn't really fit in unless he makes himself fit in
