One played 30+ MPG, the other one ~21MPG...
I was comparing their physical measurements and size for the SG position more than their games.
Here's a scouting video.

I don't think I've watched him play a full game... so I can't add anything to that video.
That ain't even a step-back though.

if the jazz draft hezonja in the first they might go all euro this draft. I could see the jazz take a couple draft and stash players in the second round.

Posted this somewhere else but prob should have done so here.
As of right now my top 10 (for the Jazz) would be something along the lines of:
1. Russell- Only player in the draft I view as a perfect fit for our current roster. Potentially elite scorer with the potential to not be a complete liability on defense.
2. Mudiay- Prob not the best fit next to Exum due to being somewhat similar but they could become one of the most dynamic backcourts in the league.
3. Okafor- Arguably the most NBA-ready player in the draft & clearly the best prospect (along w towns) after the 2 above. The offensive oriented big seems to be the better fit along side our defense-first tandem of Favors & Gobert.
4. Towns- Clearly part of the elite 4 in this draft, I actually like his long-term potential better than Okafor's (I know, always go bpa at the top of the draft) but not his fit as he brings a lot of the same skills as the bigs that we currently have.
5. Hezonja- Closest thing to a go-to-scorer after Russell in this draft. Prefer Johnson (slightly) as a prospect but this team will need an alpha dog scorer & Mario could be just that.
6. Johnson- Love his defensive ability, not sold on his offense though. Could help form one of the best defensive starting 5's in the NBA along with our core 4.
7. Porzingis- Don't love the draft (for the jazz) after the top 6, seems like the next best thing as a stretch 4 that could play alongside either Favors or Gobert.
8. Booker- Could be the knock down shooter we will need to unclog the paint with our limited-ranged bigs. Might even bump him up a spot after having more time to evaluate his defensive potential.
9. WCS- Not the best fit, similar to Towns, but too good of value to pass up.
10. Oubre- Haven't followed him closely enough to say for sure but seems to be the best combination of fit & potential at this spot.
Curious to see what everyone else's top 10's look like at this point.

Ford just released Mock 3.0
For Jazz:
There's going to be a couple players drafted 5-12 that are as good as or better than 1-4. Looney very well could be one of them. Love his length.
Imagine Jazz defensively with him, Exum and Gobert.

Looney is 4/6 from deep in his last 2 games. I haven't really seen enough to have an opinion on his game, but Ford really really likes him.
