Following potential 2015 draftees

Yep, I'm officially on the Hezonja bandwagon. I'm going to be mega-pissed if we miss this guy by a pick or two. Breaking out the voodoo dolls.

Obviously but basically what we'd be doing is drafting a backup (unless we all want to keep Gobert on the bench) while ignoring the fact that our guard play is still abysmal.

Well we might be drafting a backup at the SG especially since Burks/Hoods will be available next year. Our SG/SF position wouldn't be so thin if we hadn't lost those two players. I think you take the best player available regardless of position but if Kanter leaves then Gobert takes his spot and the Jazz can fill up a backup PF or C if they are the best player available.

Exactly. Quin has shown he'll make changes if/when he determines (Dante/Trey). Burks will start next season. And I think Gobert will too, even if Utah keeps Kanter. Now that we're likely drafting in the 8-12 range, I'm hoping Hezonja or Porzingis will be available - although I'd still love to see a Gobert/WCS rotation at the 5, allowing Favors to play all his minutes at PF. I know Booker has just one season remaining on his contract, but I think he'd re-sign. And I'm ok with him as our backup 4. As Cy said, this is his first season shooting 3's. He's at 35% which is pretty good for a PF. And there's no question his intensity fuels the team and the crowd.
 
I've been good with Hezonja for awhile now.

He's a rare combo of being both a really good shooter and a really good athlete.

I also dig that he's not a *****.

My left nut is already promised for us drafting Ben Simmons, so now I am considering if I'd be willing to give up the other one for Russell...

If there are already little stitches running around then I'd say do it. If there aren't any I'd say do it anyway.
 
Hezonja is 6'8" and could end up 6'9." Our perimeter could be 6'6," 6'8" and 6'8" with Exum, Hezonja and Hayward, and all of them can shoot, drive and pass.

And Gobert who'll likely be 10 feet tallby then.
 
Mario and Hayward would be a very dynamic pairing on the wings. He even has those Hayward style blocks sometimes.
