Jazz Pre-Draft Workouts 2015

[Jazz4ever]

Harrell and Petteway are both decent. Could see the Jazz pulling a Gobert move and buying a late 1st for a guy like Montrezl Harrell. Undersized, but high energy and hustle.

I think it makes some sense to do this, this draft is deep, but unpredictable. Some of our targets, like Looney, could go anywhere from 9 to 20.
The Bulls at 22 might have some use for Burke too with Rose's knees always in question. So Burke + cash to the Bulls for the 22 makes some sense for both maybe?
Who knows maybe someone like Dekker or Hunter falls to 22

Some more scrubs, great.

We've only brought in three guys in the 10-20 range.

Hunter, Looney, Portis. Good thing we still have 19 days 'til the draft.

It means we're trading out.

Rigby probably smarter than 90% on this forum.

No. Have you not heard Rigby?

How many of the top-10 guys did Utah have in for workouts last year?

I'll bet in the next two weeks, they'll end up having worked out as many guys projected in the 9-19 range as they did in the 3-13 range last year.

You should update the first post with all the players that the Jazz have worked out so far.

It is taking every ounce of my willpower to avoid responding with, "Have you not read 90% of the posts on this forum?"

Damn, I just did it, didn't I? Oh well, I don't agree with my own comment above even though I think it's pretty funny, but the last laugh is on us because Rigby has somehow managed to leverage his limited intelligence into a position that 90% of us would consider a dream job.

Let me rephrase.

I hope we trade out. We don't need any more rookies. The money situation is about to change and we are on the cusp. Bring in some proven talent and let's make a few runs at the ring.

Who do you want Lowry?

 

[LogGrad98]

Trade out for assets. Take on a couple cap clearing contracts for next year so we can really take advantage of the new cap the year after. I would prefer to see something along these lines than just drafting another rookie that probably won't crack the rotation, if he does, for a couple years.

Kristaps Porzingis' Only Pre-Draft Workout Will Be In Vegas On Friday:

David J. Smith‏@davidjsmith123
Wonder if the Jazz will be able to attend this, or if only top seven pick teams will be allowed.

Andy Larsen ‏@andyblarsen
@davidjsmith1232 Yep, Jazz going. Myles Turner and other ASM* client prospects will be there too.


* ASM represents Alec Burks and Trevor Booker from the Jazz. And at least 3 guys who were just in for the FA mini Camp.

other draftees include Jareel Martin
