Claxton may have a promise from Atlanta at #17, which would explain why Claxton shut down workouts a week early.

Now that makes sense!! I believe it...


I really think Claxton is a hard player to make a case against...

He's a new-age skillset and big enough to play backup 5.



This would also have implications on ATL's first 2 picks... Obviously one will be a forward, at least one...

If there was some way to trade up I like a gamble on Romeo Langford. Although I'm not a fan of trading up this year.

If the price is right this is a gamble worth taking.

Really like the fit for all parties tbh.


Mitchell - Langford - Ingles-is an extremely viable perimeter trio.Quinn could figure out how to make it work asap...

Langford is in no way redundant with Exum, different postionally, both are 6'6' thats bout it.

I just really think the Jazz could use some added youth and athleticism on the wing. Langford fits the physical profile. He was really good as a PnR ball handler at Indiana. He scored well running it and he showed flashes as a playmaker/passer in it too. Which I really think would fit well for us because of the offense Quin runs. The added bonus is that he can create his own shot off of the dribble which is a skill that we desperately need more of on this team.

He'd have to improve as a shooter, off ball offensive player and defender though. Decision making needs improvement as well.

Small price to pay for a prospect of that quality.

I always thought, and still believe that Langford is one of the better SG prospects i've seen.. He mostly shoots the ball well when i've seen him tho
 
How good is the Weber State kid that worked out yesterday? I saw one place that he was one of the top 50 high school players nationally when he signed with Utah. I know Diamond Stone was a McDonalds All American so high school success doesn't necessarily translate.
 
I haven't seen the Memphis Grizzlies work out players slated for later in the first round. In fact, the only workouts have been Ja Morant and RJ Barrett. So if the Jazz or Celtics are going to trade a late first-round pick to Memphis for Mike Conley, there isn't much evidence that Memphis knows who they'd draft at 20, 22 or 23.
 
"Dort's toughness, athleticism and long-term potential will be attractive to an organization that prides itself on character and work ethic."

From Givony's latest mock. He has him going 27th to the Nets. But that description sounds like "Jazz DNA".
 
I wonder if Chuma Okeke was one of the two players Walt Perrin was hoping they could work out but couldn't due to injury. Or did it seem like he was referring to recent injuries?
