Locke has said top 18 for 2018...?? Still murky for details on that front.

you're sure he wasn't talking about the pick okc sent to denver? Cuz I know that pick was top 18 protected.

Source tells the tribune Tibor Pleiss may leave his team in Barcelona soon, could be immediately available to jazz if FO chooses


Likely, because I think the Jazz are currently at 12 players. The NBA mandates that they have 13 on contract.

I'm assuming they'll pick up Jack Cooley, buy out Perkins, and probably try to bring Pleiss over.

"Soon" as in....right now....this season? That would be cool to get a closer look at him.

I'm not sure how that would work. That's what Jones seems to infer.

I'm pretty sure you're right. I'm going off of hear-say on twitter.

Looks like his standing reach is only slightly shorter than Rudy's, just based on how little he has to jump to dunk. Can't teach 7ft2 and coordinated either. He has good touch too, so maybe he can teach Rudy that little lefty jump hook.

Pleiss is a unique player. Watching the video it seems:

-He has good hands
-He's always looking for the ball
-For his height he has Gobert-like coordination
-He has some nice moves around the basket
-He's coordinated
-Fundamentally sound
-Not as explosive as Gobert
-Has a soft shooting touch
-He's not a wuss (see video below)


Questions:

-Can he pass?
-What's his defense like?
-His numbers dictate he can shoot but the highlights didn't show this

baffling. DL probably requested Pleiss ahead of all of their other pieces on that team.

I'm excited. Didn't check news tonight somehow. But I'm stoked! Very skilled big. Had he played last summer for the National Team he would have been the best German player by far over Schröder. (Saying best, not most talented)
