Pelton did his final rankings:
1 Sheppard
2 Clingan
3 Sarr
4 Edey
5 Furphy
6 Walter
7 Risacher
8 McCain
9 K. George
10 Castle
11 Dillingham

18 Topic
19 R. Dunn
20 Holland
21 Scheierman
22 J. Wells
23 Missi
24 T. Smith
25 J. Bridges
26 Collier
27 J. Edwards
28 J. Tyson
29 Ware
30 C. Williams
Bonus:
35 Knecht
"There have been five players age 22 or older drafted in the top 10 in the past decade: Kris Dunn, Buddy Hield, Frank Kaminsky, Davion Mitchell and Obi Toppin. Of those picks, only Hield has become a capable starter, and the numbers don't suggest Knecht is likely to change that trend."
45 Bronny
"The best comps for James in this regard, like Peyton Watson of the Denver Nuggets, are typically bigger. James will have to dramatically improve his shooting to fit a 3-and-D role after hitting 27% from the college line."

Keegan Murray was also 22+, iirc. also Devin Carter is 22+
Keegan was just under 22....but yeah, this applies to Carter as well. While Carter is rising up my board, it's good to remember the age difference. I think Carter and Knecht have great production and look good on film), but it has to be great when you're 3-4 years older than some of the other prospects.
Knecht is particularly troubling for a model like this because he wasn't a prospect until recently. Some see his rapid improvement as a bonus, and I get that....but he's still abnormally old.
It's weird to me when people dismiss Knecht so much
We have new predictions in our 58-pick mock draft: Risers, fallers and latest intel
With a trade for the No. 14 pick and movement with players near the end of the first round, we project both rounds of the 2024 NBA draft.

Jazz should definitely pick him with #32 if still there

Im guessing it have something to do with already having guys who can shoot, Lauri, Clarkson, and Sexton. Fans probably would like a player with a higher ceiling and someone who can help us not give up 70+ per half.

I thought giving up 70+ at half is the Jazz culture.

Jazz are seen as a strong suitor for Rob Dillingham if he falls to 10.
Utah is seen as a potential landing spot for Devin Carter.
Sounds like at the moment we are potentially drafting a PG. We are also in the market for a C (Clingan or Edey).
Lakers are interested in trading for Dejounte Murray and Collin Sexton.
Last year we drafted my least desirable lotto prospect in Hendricks so there is no way the Jazz repeat with getting Dillingham.
I bet if we’re trying to trade up it would be for Castle or Williams. Probably don’t think any wings we like will be available at 10.
I’d be so happy if we drafted Dilly.
