Jazz Pre-Draft Workouts 2015

Jazz working out Richaun Holmes tomorrow. He is actually projected to be a 2nd rounder and is very intriguing.
 
Here are some of the players that will be worked out tomorrow:

Holmes, Scott and Atkins are top 100 prospects on DX's list. All of them are more recognizable than the players we worked out today.

Lol at Utah including phonetic pronunciations for Traevon and Richaun.
 
Atkins has some nice measurements.

6'7 with a 7'2 wingspan and 240 lb frame. 30'' no-step vertical. Undersized and strong athletic 4.

I remember seeing Atkins as disciplined, excellent help and on the ball defender.

Yah, Virginia played excellent defense altogether. He's a well-coached player for sure.

I wonder what the numbers included mean? Do you think it's possible they are numbers of the players on our board? Lol, that would be really sloppy...

Scott and Jackson had very modest numbers and shooting percentages their last year.

It's the jersey numbers they wear. You get some kind of jersey that you keep when you come in for a workout. Some guy at school here has one from when he worked out for the Pacers.

“Dennis has always said no matter how many of these workouts we do — and we try to do a lot of them — if we get one (player), it’s been successful,” Perrin said. “So all of the workouts we did last year were successful because we got Bryce Cotton out of it.”

Seems to be the case that no team taps into this source more then the Utah Jazz. I think they entertain more players in this manner then anyone else.....

Sounds like fluff. Bryce was brought up because he was doing crazy effeciency .473/.452/.900 for the Austin Spurs

I think it's a combination of both. Jazz get an idea of the type of player someone is, his athleticism, etc. via the workouts. Could be a deciding factor if there are 2-3 players they're considering for 10-days. This year there's an added reason to bring in a lot of players since the Jazz now have their own DLeague team.
