Jazz select Udoka Azubuike with pick 27 & trade Tony Bradley + pick 38 to the Pistons

Defensive highlights.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Going back:

• Brandon Clarke (reportedly a Jazz favorite) dropped 36 against Baylor
• Grayson Allen surprisingly never faced Baylor during 4 years at Duke
• Tony Bradley never faced Baylor

Maybe we should hope that the Jazz draft someone who does well against Baylor: Clarke & Donovan turned out great. Maybe Azibuike and Hughes will be next

Joe Ingles scored 40 in an preseason exhibition game when Macabi played Baylor. Okay that isn’t true.

Does a big mans defense in college usually transfer well to the nba?

It depends. If their not really up against NBA-sized competition, which can happen in the lesser conferences then often no.

Udoka's Per 36-min stats: 18p / 14r / 3b.
Not shabby.

Here it is. The Baylor game.

Defense in general more reliably than offense i believe so yes

Remember when Donovan Mitchell was going to be our ball hawking defensive stopper? THAT turned out very differently. . .

Here it is. The Baylor game.

He was impressive in this game, indeed. Also really went off on Obi Toppin and Dayton. Unfortunately only extended highlights are available for that one.

Udoka's advanced stats are actually slightly better than Joel Embiid's and Onyeka Okongwu's. Udoka is also just 6 months older than Embiid was at the time he was drafted.

I’d really love this pick if Rudy wasn’t on the team

much better prospect than TB... I do think he will get called for 1000 travels. A few of those dunks included some ummm “fancy” footwork.
