Following Potential 2025 Draftees

Absolutely, I want Flagg number 1 but even getting Harper, Bailey, VJ, or Tre is a huge win for us. We have a lot of slop on this team and any of those 5 instantly make next season more watchable

Listened to Mann talk about the Jazz trading down from #2 on Lowe’s podcast. Have to say that this one of the dumbest takes I’ve heard all draft cycle. If DA thinks someone is better than Harper and trades down like he did for Tatum that is one thing. I won’t agree with the evaluation, but the logic makes sense. If we trade Harper because we have Collier, Sexton, and Key just fade me now. We didn’t tank a whole year for those guys. We tanked so we could draft a player like Dylan Harper.

I’m probably wrong but I’m not in on vj. Love that he can shoot and his athletic ability is obvious but I’m of the belief that wiggle cannot be learned. I fear he’s a smaller Wiggins

Also think Locke is a nut down talking Harper for the same reason. Wiggle is a rare skill that cannot simply be learned.

What if Harper is a bigger Brunson?

Donovan learned wiggle. Even though he isnt the wiggliest, he improved on it over the years.

Wiggins as in Andrew, the dude famous for not playing hard?

Ok i know I will get flamed for this but here it goes....

I want Copper Flagg period but if we don't get the #1 pick i kinda want the 3rd or 4th pick. I know Harper is #2 and that would be the pick but if we get the other picks image the conversations here on JazzFanz and who we should draft.

I totally see Ainge pull and Ainge of we get #2 and trade down for Ace but if we get 3 through 5 there will be a lot of debate about who to draft and that will just make the draft that much more fun. I am in this for the entertainment value.

Just saying

I always liked Donovan’s handle. Felt like he had pretty good pacing. Prolly need to watch more vj but my first thought is one cut and go and rise up.

Gordo was a much better athlete and bigger... but also not as good of a shooter. I really think like a mix of Bane and Ingles (joe had way more length but still) are some of the comps I like the best. I think there could be some Booker in there but not quite as athletic.

He has enough size that his shooting, processing and motor will make him a contributor. Even if the ceiling is a little lower.

Bane sounds right tho some of what he brings reminds me a little of Hornacek.

He's managing expectations so that when the Jazz end up with the 3rd pick and take Bailey Locke will say that's the guy he wanted.

Yep
