Following potential 2017 draftees...

Another interesting thing of Draft Twitter vs NBA Draft: I wonder if there is any chance John Collins falls to the Jazz at 24? A lot of the draft writers and thinkers are really down on Collins relative to the major draft website consensus.

Yeah I don't agree with all of his stuff of course, but he's got some good takes.

Yeah, just some takes are super wild. Like some guy I've never heard of at 22. DX has him ranked as the 60th *senior* available. Does he have past big boards on record?
 
Since everyone in the draft looks like a future all-star to me today I like this idea...

Brian Seltzer @brianseltzer
Colangelo on 2nd-rounders:"So many variables what we might be able to do." Says, i.e., you could use them in package to get back into 1st R.

Tom Moore @tmoore76ers
#Sixers Bryan Colangelo: Getting a late 1st-rounder would probably be 'a better fit for the current roster.'

Philly has the 36,39, 46, and 50 picks.
So which teams have a late 1-st rounder they may be willing to role into a couple of second round picks?

So The Jazz should trade #30 for 36 & 39 and draft the Second Round Dream all-star team.

#24- Pf-DJ Wilson
#36- PG-Frank Jackson
#39- C-Mathias Lessort
#42- SG-Wesely Iwundu or Josh Hart
#55-SF-Wesely Alves Da Silva -

I'd be down with trading 30 for 36 and 39 as long as DL structures the contracts similar to a 1st round pick (where the free agent is restricted)so once the contract ends the Jazz can match the offer if another team attempts to sign him.

Actually I like the thinking but not sure of the choice of players

If there were actually international players worth stashing it would make sense to trade down from 30 to get multiple 2nd round picks, but there really isnt.

This. Jazz should draft Semi Ojeleye at #24 and hope Jordan Bell falls to #30. Don't get fancy. Just get your guy. I'd rather be a team that packages the two seconds and some cash to move up for a guy they really like in the late 1st/early 2nd range.

Yeah I'd rather move back up for a third first round pick. Maybe 42, 55 and cash for Portland's 26?

24- Ojeleye
26- Bell
30- Frank Jackson, Derrick White, Josh Hart, whatever G they like

Ojeleye is overrated heavily imo. Think it's mostly due to everyone having a chub for his muscles.
 
Bam's little shooting display is helping his draft stock apparently. He worked out with Charlotte and made a good impression. He might be in play as high as the late lottery.

I really hope Charlotte takes him. My dream scenario is still Mitchell falling to 12 and Utah using to trade up to get Mitchell.

I asked this about ten days ago and was totally dismissed.
