Jazz Pre-Draft Workouts 2015
- Thread starter mellow
- Start date
Or trading in for a pick, doesn't have to mean we trade 12 to get into a later spot in the draft.
Walt Perrin after today's workout:
https://espn700sports.com/espn700-interviews/walt-perrin-utah-jazz-pre-draft-workout-6-4-15/
Highlights:
-All prospects did well and had no problems with fatigue(including Looney)
-Looney shot well, probably is better at that than Portis right now
-Portis' shot would need some tweaks and adjustments... showed he can move his feet in D, needs go get stronger.
-Looney had an advantage in one area on the floor and Portis had an advantage in another area

Workout PR 101: Say "Everyone competed hard"
That has to be the first sentence out of every player's and coach/FO's mouth when asked about a workout.

Portis interview.
Portis talked to Jazz twice at combine, there must be some significant interest.

Try these:
Locke interviews RJ Hunter: https://weareutahjazz.com/lockedonjazz/2015/06/03/podcast-locke-talks-with-rj-hunter/
Where Locke says to RJ 'bad news for Jazz fans is that you shoot it just like Ian Clark, who couldn't make it.'
Locke and Bobby Portis. https://weareutahjazz.com/lockedonjazz/2015/06/04/podcast-locke-talks-with-bobby-portis/
Locke and Looney: https://weareutahjazz.com/lockedonjazz/2015/06/04/podcast-locke-talks-with-kevon-looney/
Not sure what to make of Rigby. Maybe he's implying that the Jazz really like Hunter.
It's interesting if Looney as a slightly younger guy can keep pace with Portis. Looney might actually have the longer standing reach, and is a more natural shooter. I just wish Looney could finish better inside. That has to be where Portis had his advantage, whereas Looney is probably better 20 feet out.

I really like the idea of Connaughton in the 2nd round. They always say that a player should have an elite skill. He's got a couple... shooting and athleticism. He's also tough and typically played against opposing teams SF or PF's even though he's only 6'5".

Yeah but he fibbed his standing reach somehow at the combine (no way it's that small) so he had an exaggerated vertical number.

Some under the radar guys. Interesting that there is a camp for Euro teams in Vegas in the middle of July.
