Following 2016 potential draftees

Chad Ford Mock Draft 1 highlights

The usual suspects at 1,2,3
4. Sixers (via LAL) - Jamal Murray
5. Raptors (DEN's pick via NYK swap) - Dragan Bender [Yes, the Raptors might get a top 5 pick for Andrea freaking Bargnani]
7. Celtics (via Brooklyn) - Malik Pope [Draftexpress has him at #30]
8. Kings - Malik Newman [For the people who thought Malik Pope was a typo]
14. Jazz - Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk
15. Celtics - Ivan Rabb
26. Clippers - Isaiah Briscoe

Thats too low for Briscoe. He's not Marquis Teague.

By later this season, the jazz will be in a strong position to go all-in on a trade for a major talent. They'll have all their young pieces well evaluated, except for Exum, and can see if they've got one more big move in store to push the team to an upper echelon.

Lots of options.

Murray, Newman, Ingram, Jaylen Brown and Kris Dunn look like the best trade up options for the Jazz IMO.

Murray and Ingram.

Those are the 2 best options. Both fit right in, and could be significant upgrades at their spots in the depth chart immediately, enough to warrant trading up for. Murray can play some SG and Ingram can play some PF too(vs stretch 4's)

Exum - (Murray) - Burke

Burks - Hood

Hayward - (Ingram) - Ingles

Favors - Lyles

Gobert - Pleiss



I'm a bit more wait and see with Murray, just because I have a lot of conviction that Ingram can put up an easy 15 points a game in a few years.

Pencil korkmaz to the Jazz. Mykhailiuk is to hard to say.

Ford has been really high on Pope last season as well. Guess we will see if he is right this season.

Will be so mad if Newman is banished to an existence on the Kings.
 
I think he drastically overrates him.

Yeah you're probably right, after getting a better look at other players in that 6'10 / 7'2" wingspan range from the next few years I'm starting to get that vibe. I'd still have him around 20 though, incase he shoots 40% again from 3 on higher volume.

He's twice broken his leg too, not exactly the best sign.

Taurean Prince and Timothe Luwawu could be better options for the Jazz.
