Following potential 2015 draftees

Jazz need to take Frank if he falls to 12, IMO. Booker probably makes sense if Frank isn't there, but it's a bummer that it won't address a backup SF woe that we have. It would be awesome to have defense and solid shooting at the 3 spot behind Hayward.

i am hoping the jazz grab another pick later and nab Justin Anderson to fill that role.
 
Not excited about Oubre. I've warmed to Kaminsky though.

I'm not excited about many of the wings - because of the glut of really good players on the roster there already. But if it's one that we think is going to be special, well, that's different. Who do I think might be special? Johnson. And Booker's got a nice stroke. Although I think I'd take Kaminsky before Booker. And there are quite few others that I like. Super excited about the options at 12 - IF the jazz keep the pick (and don't select Oubre). Sorry, Fish.
 
Did you watch Locke's review? Doesn't always hustle. Seems to drop down a gear in speed whenever he dribbles.
I have a pretty low floor for him (Xavier Henry). I can't really think of a ceiling...which is also a bad sign.

this is where i am with him. I would rather pass

Hezojna is one of the most special is this draft in my opinion
 
Here's my post-combine, post-lottery 2015 draft board for the Jazz:

1. D'Angelo Russell
2. Karl-Anthony Towns
3. Emanuel Mudiay
4. Jahlil Okafor
5. Mario Hezonja
6. Justise Winslow
7. Kristaps Porzingis
8. Willie Cauley-Stein
9. Stanley Johnson
10. Myles Turner
11. Devin Booker
12. Kelly Oubre Jr
13. Bobby Portis
14. Frank Kaminsky
15. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson
16. Kevon Looney
17. Sam Dekker
18. Trey Lyles
19. Cameron Payne
20. Jerian Grant

Second round pick wishes:

Robert Upshaw if he drops that far
JP Tokoto
Timothe Luwawu
George Lucas
Rakeem Christmas
Chris McCullough
Richaun Holmes
Cedi Osman
Aleksandar Vezenkov

I don't have an opinion on Hezonja or Porzingis. I'm aware of the hype though, but I'd be afraid to pull the trigger when there are so many other great options. But I don't know anything. And, luckily, I have supreme confidence in the Jazz FO. Well, maybe not supreme (hated DL trading that pick last year for nothing), but I have confidence in the FO nonetheless.
 
I'm on the Kaminsky bandwagon right now.
DL mentioned Jazz don't want more young players to develop.
They would consider trading pick for a young vet.
Kaminsky is a ready to play senior.
He is already a young vet.
He should be able to come in and figure things out pretty quick.
Kaminsky would also be a great interview.
Imagine him and Gobert and T Booker etc after a game.
It would be great fun.
