2025 Utah Jazz All-Time Bad Draft

Alright think that’s me up again.

I’m going to take Mark Jackson. Make him play shooting guard. There’s only 5 guys on my team no expectations and no fights for minutes, but I bet he still splits that locker room into at least 3 factions.

I was planning on picking Mark Jackson. He was obviously a decent player for his career, but by the time he was on the Jazz he was bad. On top of being bad on the court was the locker room stuff you alluded to. I think he probably should have gone higher in this draft.

Was truly shocked he didn’t go higher. Would have taken him as my third pick if I hadn’t gotten antsy about Morris.
 
With their 4th pick, the Mellochills draft forward Marc Iavaroni. Iavaroni started his career overseas and came over to the NBA in his later 20s. He ended up playing 4 seasons for the Jazz, his 3rd NBA team, totaling over 3,200 minutes from 1985-89. He put up averages of 3.5 ppg, 2.5 rpg and 0.6 apg in just over 12 minutes a night.

He was the quintessential blue collar guy who gave it everything when was on the floor and always in the fray on defense and rebounding. Every team could use a guy like him for 12 minutes a night.

Ugh. The Big Easy. Not his nickname but I’m giving it to him anyway. I was at game 3 vs the Clips when Hayward went off for 40 and Diaw almost tied it up with a four point play with like two seconds left. So close. We won the series anyway so it didn’t matter.

He’s probably most famous for throwing away an inbounds pass on the last possession of Game 7 against the Lakers in 1988 when the Jazz almost pulled off the upset.
