Crazy that key is the best free throw shooter in the NBA and so poor from 3.
I figure that 3 point percentage has got to come up a bunch at some point

I think the Jazz will keep Lauri. Putting Lauri and Ace side-by-side at the wings is attractive. Now they need another All Star-level player to run their offense through.

Otherwise, you've got a 7-ft guy averaging 30 ppg who likes being in Utah. Why would you move him?

Yeah - and it does feel very Ainge-like to match Lauri with an all-star vet around his age with two young studs on rookie scale deals. Hayward, Kyrie, Tatum, Brown.

Almost like there’s a playbook.

Only thing that gives me pause is Lowe’s confident reporting and I’m not sure we’re landing top 5 with Lauri on the team.
 
Jazz could shoot a shot super high into the air with 1 second on the shot clock and by the time the ball comes down the game might be over

Unfortunately Jazz regular season record makes Lauri's allstar selection very unlikely.
When Lauri made 2023 allstar game Jazz started that season winning record and they were TOP6 team in western conference.

Now Jazz are hanging play-in line so i don't see Lauri making to allstar game without injuries or that Jazz starts winning.
Allstar selections and other accolades usually goes those players who play playoffs / championship contending teams not tanking teams like Lauri does.

If Lauri is averaging in the high 20s scoring-wise, I think he needs to be added. You've got Jokic, Doncic, Wemby, Giannis, SGA as locks. Sengun has a strong case. Then it's one of Lauri, Paolo, Franz or Deni. Or maybe Giddey?
