Who do you like the most as a realistic pick between 6-8?

The Jazz drafting between #6-#8 seems like far & away the most likely outcome. Who do you like right now as a realistic draft choice in that slot?

For me right now it’s far & away Caleb Wilson. Nate Ament would be a distant 2nd.

With Key’s emergence I don’t want anything to do with Mikel Brown or Kingston Flemings.

Unfortunately I don't think Caleb Wilson will be available at 6.

I'm leaning towards Fleming right now as the guy I would want the most, but there is still a lot of time left. I think Fleming could easily play with Keyonte.

I'll also point out that if we end up at 5 or 6 in the tank standings then we'll still have about a 40% chance at a top 4 pick.

Carr or Wagler

I don't know why anyone would want Ament top 10, much less top 8. Not much potential as was advertised

There's a pretty clear consensus top 4 with Boozer, Dybantsa, Peterson and Wilson in some order. The next tier of talent looks to include Mikel Brown, imo. Flemings is having a standout season and likely belongs in this tier, even if his measurables are a bit on the small side for the NBA.

Ideally, the Jazz would bring in someone who is: a) a standout athlete, b) with plus size/length, c) who plays defense, and d) who handles and moves the ball in a way that complements our wings (Ace/Lauri) and helps unlock Walker at the 5. At this stage, there isn't an obvious guy for me, but my shortlist would include Neo Avadalas, Karim Lopez, Hannes Steinbach and Tounde Yessoufou.

If the Jazz could swing a trade with Charlotte, where the Jazz trade back 2 or 3 spots and also grab the Hornets' pick from the Magic in the teens, I might consider that. I'd be looking for the above mentioned players, plus Carr and Cenac.

Quaintance is probably my favorite prospect in this range atm…but there’s obviously collision there with WK.

If we are talking about someone complementing the lineup of Kessler, Lauri, Ace and Keyonte we obviously need a secondary playmaker. That would be Wilson, Brown, Flemings, Philon.

Well, assume Wilson goes in the top 4. So if the Jazz are at #6, then yes they could take a guard. I'm biased in favor of big wings who can playmake. That archetype, which includes guys like Franz Wagner, Deni Avdija and Jalen Johnson, would complement what the Jazz already have, while also keeping more size/length on the floor. The question for me is whether Neo Avadalas is good enough as a shooter/scorer to enter into that tier.
