One of these players will be available for the Jazz at #5. However, if the Jazz have a strong preference, they may also have an opportunity to trade up to #3 with Philadelphia and take the player of their choice.

Which player do you prefer for the Jazz among these three?

This is the correct poll question.

I’m here to swing for the fences and there’s one that stands head and shoulders above the others in that regard.

It's early in the draft process, but the chatter among draftniks is consistently predicting that VJ Edgecombe will go at #3 or #4. Tony Jones keeps insinuating that the guy he expects to be available at #5 is Ace Bailey, rather than Tre Johnson.

Jazz may be able to stay at 5 and take Ace. If they want Tre or VJ, they need to think about moving up.

Leif Thulin Says there are scouts he’s talking to that have Ace 9th or 10th. Wonder if they’re on the jazz. Maybe that’s driving Tony’s opinion

I don't think David Locke would be crowing about Ace if that were the case. He'd be trying to sell the Jazz fans on Fears, Knueppel or someone else. There are a few tweakers out there that think the Jazz would take Demin in the top 10.

If that's the case, I trade down to 9 or 10 eight days a week rather than trade up to 3 for Tre.
 
Tony Jones did a radio interview this week with Spence Checketts where he said he thinks Philly will take Edgecombe if they keep the pick. He thinks Charlotte will then pick between Johnson and Knueppel at #4. Then he thinks the Jazz will likely take Ace at #5 (although maybe Johnson also gets to 5).
 
I’m using my old measurement of #hunger to evaluate players this year.

Tre seems to have the most #hunger out of the 3.

VJ is really hard to read.

Ace seems to have the least.. just seemed too nonchalant to me.

I’m going with Tre.
