Following Potential 2025 Draftees

One pretty obvious trade to keep in mind for draft night

Jazz get: #6, #18
Wizards get: #5, #21

The Wiz like moving up for their guy to make sure they get him so if the Jazz and Wizards prefer different players at #5 and no one is knocking down Utah's doors to jump the Wizards, expect the Jazz to trade down to #6.
Horrendous trade, no way Ainge do this.
 
I just can't do another skinny raw wing right now.

He's not really even a wing from what I'm seeing. He does some perimeter stuff, but almost all of his play on both ends is what a big would do. I rewatched those three games this morning, and in three games he made one jumpshot out of 15 makes. One jumper, about 10 dunks, and the rest tip ins or layups.

Did you literally not read any of the context. The Wizards would be letting us move up from 21 to 18 in exchange for making sure they didn't get jumped. If the Jazz and Wizards like the same guy, this trade will obviously not happen. If they like different guys, this would be basically a free move from 21 to 18 for the Jazz.
 
I saw one this morning with dunks and Kon and there was like no assist qualifiers or anything and ... yeah... take that stuff out and he looks like Joe Harris... you got the answer you wanted homie.

The query boys are out of control, but I also keep getting this #SpreadsheetFC thing popping up on my TL and it's people going an extra layer beyond the query under the guise of being even more analytical. Let me tell ya, SpeadsheetFC should have picked up a textbook before declaring themselves the "smart" side of the draft crowd. They are the Dunning Krueger All Stars.

In a different draft (like last year's) a deal like this might make sense. This year it doesn't unless the Jazz just utterly fall in love with Fears or Essengue. I think it's more likely the Jazz move up to make sure they get their guy.
