2020 NBA Draft Live Thread

What I don't understand is that the Stars had a couple of servicable bigs on their roster last year that would be adequate back ups. New owner better get the checkbook out for free agency.

No. 27 Pick: Udoka Azubuike, Utah Jazz

The Utah Jazz know better than most that size still matters in this NBA. They wouldn’t be contending for a title without Rudy Gobert, after all.

That must be what drew them to Udoka Azubuike, then, even if this feels too early for his skill level.

Azubuike looks like an offensive lineman who wandered onto a basketball court one day and just never left. He's a mountain of a man at 7'0" and 270 pounds, and he might play even bigger than his size thanks to a hawkish wingspan that stretches just longer than 7'7".

He has soft touch on his hook shot, but his range may not reach outside the restricted area. He shot an abysmal 41.6 percent from the line across four seasons at Kansas, so he'll be a hacking target for opposing teams.

Utah won’t be relying on Azubuike for major minutes, but even squeezing him into a regular rotation role could be tricky.

Grade: D

Hughes was the leading scorer in ACC for the Cuse. Dropped 27 in his last game vs UNC. Good three point shooter. 6'6".
 
can someone post video on Elijah Hughes? I know nothing about this guy? what do the Jazz experts think? Well Lock was wrong that is one good thing that happened.
 
Hughes could be a JC type bench scorer in a few years. But he doesn't bring what we need that is size/defense at the wing.
