2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

What if the Jazz make no trades, use all three draft picks and let the free agents all walk? Do both Hardy and all members of this board commit suicide or are things not that bad?
 
Pelton did his final rankings:

1 Sheppard

2 Clingan

3 Sarr

4 Edey

5 Furphy

6 Walter

7 Risacher

8 McCain

9 K. George

10 Castle

11 Dillingham

12 Christie

13 D. Carter

14 Salaun

15 Carrington

16 Buzelis

17 Filipowski

18 Topic

19 R. Dunn

20 Holland

21 Scheierman

22 J. Wells

23 Missi

24 T. Smith

25 J. Bridges

26 Collier

27 J. Edwards

28 J. Tyson

29 Ware

30 C. Williams

Bonus:

35 Knecht

"There have been five players age 22 or older drafted in the top 10 in the past decade: Kris Dunn, Buddy Hield, Frank Kaminsky, Davion Mitchell and Obi Toppin. Of those picks, only Hield has become a capable starter, and the numbers don't suggest Knecht is likely to change that trend."

45 Bronny

"The best comps for James in this regard, like Peyton Watson of the Denver Nuggets, are typically bigger. James will have to dramatically improve his shooting to fit a 3-and-D role after hitting 27% from the college line."
