4. Sixers (via LAL) - Jamal Murray
5. Raptors (DEN's pick via NYK swap) - Dragan Bender [Yes, the Raptors might get a top 5 pick for Andrea freaking Bargnani]

Thats too low for Briscoe. He's not Marquis Teague.

By later this season, the jazz will be in a strong position to go all-in on a trade for a major talent. They'll have all their young pieces well evaluated, except for Exum, and can see if they've got one more big move in store to push the team to an upper echelon.

Lots of options.

Murray, Newman, Ingram, Jaylen Brown and Kris Dunn look like the best trade up options for the Jazz IMO.

Murray and Ingram.

Those are the 2 best options. Both fit right in, and could be significant upgrades at their spots in the depth chart immediately, enough to warrant trading up for. Murray can play some SG and Ingram can play some PF too(vs stretch 4's)

Exum - (Murray) - Burke

Burks - Hood

Hayward - (Ingram) - Ingles

Favors - Lyles

Gobert - Pleiss



I'm a bit more wait and see with Murray, just because I have a lot of conviction that Ingram can put up an easy 15 points a game in a few years.

Ford has been really high on Pope last season as well. Guess we will see if he is right this season.

Will be so mad if Newman is banished to an existence on the Kings.

Yeah you're probably right, after getting a better look at other players in that 6'10 / 7'2" wingspan range from the next few years I'm starting to get that vibe. I'd still have him around 20 though, incase he shoots 40% again from 3 on higher volume.

He's twice broken his leg too, not exactly the best sign.

Taurean Prince and Timothe Luwawu could be better options for the Jazz.

They play differently, Zimmerman is a considerably better shooter and passer, he plays a finesse game but throws down nasty dunks like a slightly bigger Cody Zeller, and I think NBA teams will like that. Poeltl's much more of a factor on the boards and close to the basket, he's like a better version of Robin Lopez.

Hayes and Sabonis will definitely be in the first round. Hayes is going to have a monster year with everyone that Wisconsin lost last year

There's a handful of questionable international declarations in that mock, will probably be a few more spots for older players. That type of scenario would be great for stash options though.
 
Bronson Koening is going to bust out next year too for Wisconsin. I always really liked his game, super interested to see if he bust out as a NBA prospect this year.
 
I don't think that's a bad call. Bronson will need a minor miracle to break thru the bottom half of the 2nd round though. Seems like the type of player who will get looks even if he goes undrafted.


I would't call him or expect him to be a sleeper. Jalen Adams from UConn is a better bet.
