It's not out of the question that we take someone who none of us expected... I'd be thrilled with Dario Saric. Which prospect that hasn't been 'projected' as a Jazz target at this point by the pundits would you be fine with if the Jazz took them?
 
Who?

If then jazz draft him, imagine all the boos that will fill the arena! Lol could you imagine? After one of the suckiest seasons ever, the jazz draft some wimpy hair follicle infected foreign dude who no one has even heard of.

Seriously though, I have no clue who the hell you're even talking about. Is this guy a basketball player?
 
Haven't seen much, don't really like his attitude though. He probably wouldn't come over if we drafted him.
 
None. Take Gordon, Vonleh, Randle, or Smart. There's no reason not too, if they want a WTF pick then they should trade down for it.

Fine - but what about you guys? Any players you'd be fine with if everyone else was like WTF?

No... Not really.

But if there's a terrible pick at 5 to make but later might end up being good is Zach lavine. I think that kid has a pretty good chance of being a darn good player.

My Value Board has both Saric and LaVine high up on it. I wouldn't draft either of them at #5 (the Jazz need one of Wiggins, Parker or Gordon first and foremost) but I'd love to see the Jazz try to trade back up for either of those two guys.

I agree that LaVine has some serious potential.

You're on record as a huge Gary Harris homer. You didn't go him on your own thread?
 
stauskas. is it a reach? oh hell yes. but if he really is klay thompson then why da hell not? if gordon is gone at #5, i would trade down and pick stauskas at #9 ish.

Wow, I didn't think you could manage to take your reputation to a whole new level.

To answer the OP's original post, yes Saric would probably be the guy no one is talking about. Based on projections, McDermott too but I'm not concerned we would ever take him that high. Maybe Payton is who flying up boards but with Burke being drafted so highly last year, I couldn't see that either. I think the real surprise would Saric, we trade down more than three or four spots, or we trade the pick entirely for a future 1st.
 
Not my pick, but Kevin Pelton has Clint Capela listed as his #2 player statistically even though Capela is projected in the late teens, early twenties. THAT would be a WTF pick.

Post Embiid injury I figure it will come down to this:
Most likely off the board - Wiggins, Parker, Exum, Vonleh
Jazz picking between - anybody above who slides, Smart, Randle, Gordon and Embiid
Saric, McDermott, Harris, Levine, Stauskas, etc. in that next group (late lottery) that the Jazz won't have to consider unless they feel like they know something that nobody else does.
