2017 Pre-Draft Workouts

[Handlogten's Heros]

Why workout so many dudes when it's obvious: Kuzma

I've heard of players shutting down workouts after getting promises but never teams.

I like Kuzma, but what do you make of his 3 pt. Shooting percentage and ft percentage. Not sure he's a knock down shooter at this point.

I compared Sanders stats to Damina Lillard's stats his last year at Weber. They are quite close in all areas and they competed in the same league.

Compared to Lyles in college, he's a knockdown shooter.

Also from KSL today: The Jazz want to hold fewer workouts than in years past, when they've brought in over 100 players to evaluate.

"I'm planning on cutting back some. How much, I don't know for sure," Perrin said. "We feel like we need more days where we get together and talk about players."

I hope more discussion leads to better decisions.

To be fair, these late draft picks are where the Jazz have done well.

It's possible that the Jazz already know who they want and feel that bringing certain guys in to work out only tips their hand as to who they're interested in.

It's also possible the Jazz have trade scenarios to move up for players that they don't need to work out.

So far, it's been the relatively unknown guys like Wilson, Kuzma and (would have been) Frank Jackson whom they've brought in.

Watched some video on that guy and don't think he's an NBA player.

Oh wow! Donovan Mitchell has agreed to workout with us!? I don't think there is a chance in hell he drops to 24, we might need to trade up for him... That's a pretty good group. 4-5 of those are going to get drafted.

Maximum 4, dont see Jefferson or Perrantes having a shot.


But yeah, it's insane Mitchell's agent agreed to the Jazz. I guess they like the fit if we decide to trade up.

Sanders is going back to school.

My first thought was he's not got great feed back from other teams and he is looking for a backstop. But we are still in may, that seems early to start working on a backstop.
