According to Thurl Bailey the Jazz need to go on a run to get back in this game.
Ivica Zubac is an "interesting" player according to Craig Bolerjack.
If you're not familiar, this young Italian guitarist Matteo Mancuso is kind of a thing.

Jazz need a point guard
How often does a scoring guard develop into a NBA point guard after never playing it prior?? Not sure it's a sound strategy Jazz. Leading the league in turnovers is the result

Looked at Isaiah Collier's stats for the season and I don't recommend doing that.
Highest turnover rate in NBA history along with 32/15/44 splits.

Between the bad defense and the turnovers on offense, the Jazz's tank is in secure hands.
Seems about time for some Cody Williams, doesn't it?
I think it's part of the Jazz's development strategy and also due to the fact that the Jazz don't have a lead guard right now.
If the Jazz draft Flagg, they'll let him handle the ball. Otherwise, the Jazz will probably target a high-level lead guard--Harper, Kasparas or Demin.

The idea was that Keyonte's off court intelligence would translate to on-court, but he just doesn't have any feel for natural PG duties.
He doesn't process fast enough and doesn't have advanced timing on his passes.
The Jazz really demand that their players can shoot. They gave more time and development opportunity to Johnny Juzang, a UDFA, than they did for Ochai Agbaji.

He has to think through even the most simple PG action and the Jazz are basically always so late in the shot clock because he can't set up offenses.

Is the dude we have stashed in Europe a PG?
No, he's an athletic slashing wing, who is starting to shoot a bit better.
I'm okay with the Jazz drafting Derik Queen in the late lottery if we're there. He can at least create for himself. The McNeeley kid would also fit.
Hardy tried out a lineup of Lauri + 4 guards, that was interesting.
Also, I really like this new Kessler who dunks with force from far away. I don't think that he tried to do a single weak layup this game. And now when he fails a blocking attempt and gets a foul - he just smiles and carries on. His confidence is sky high.
