Following Potential 2020 draftees

Okay, but you can sign Glenn Robinson III to come off the bench at around the league minimum. I like Tyler Bey, but right now to me he projects as a back-up a la Larry Nance Jr., unless he can get his shooting up to at least 36%. That was more or less the magic number that got Royce O'Neale time on the floor. Bey is the type of versatile defender the Jazz should be looking for, and I would think the Jazz take Bey if they trade back to #26 or #27.

Personally, I might go for Paul Reed ahead of Tyler Bey. I like the extra size, and I like Reed's ability to play downhill.

Can the Jazz draft both? Those two would add length - and whoever breaks out would be a plus for team. And add a shooter to the mix?
 
I hope we try like hell to get another pick in the 30s. This draft has a lot of value from 20-45ish range imo. Locke kinda did some work on his pod and there are a lot of shooters, guys with appropriate positional size, and 3 and D wing types in that range.

Locke also mispronounced Saddiq Bey's name 150 times. Kept calling him Saddiq-ey. Other than that it was a solid breakdown.

I don't see how Saddiq Bey gets past both Portland and Dallas, tbh.

Reed could slip to the 2nd round maybe, but I don't see the Jazz drafting both of these guys. I see the Jazz comparing them and choosing one.
 
Marion was great in Phoenix when he had Steve Nash setting the table for him. He was less so in Miami.
Tyler might have Dallas Shawn Marion potential.
 
The Jazz have wanted a stretch-shooting 5 for a few years, I think. There are guys in this year's draft who could fit that description--Zeke Nnaji, Daniel Oturu and Reggie Perry. I'm not sure if Killian Tille can really play the 5 or not. Those would be 2nd round prospects for the most part.

Simply not true. Marion was great before Nash got to Phoenix. He faltered due to age, like every other player eventually does.
