2021 NBA Draft Preview (new thread)

[Ineptimusprime]

The Jazz made a shrewd move and won the draft. Color me impressed.

So I was trying to keep up with this thread but it moved way too fast.
What did we do and what did we get?
I saw something about us trading our #30 pick (and some dude everyone seemed to like named butler was on the board) and got some seconds or something? And Kyle Anderson or something?
Then I saw a thread saying we drafted butler and Wes saying welcome to the team Jared (butler?)

Can someone give me a breakdown of what happened?
I'm so confused

Traded pick #30 for #40 and 2 future 2nds. No players involved. Drafted Jared Butler from Baylor. Also there was some banana bread.

Butler enrolled at Alabama, but did not participate in the team's summer workouts and requested an unconditional release from his letter of intent in order to transfer to Baylor University.[6] Alabama released him from his commitment in August.[7] A scholarship had opened up at Baylor due to the early retirement of Jake Lindsey.[1]

Butler got to Baylor because of the early retirement of Jake Lindsey, who happen to be DL's son.

Come full circle. Seven degrees of Dennis Lindsey.

Jazz traded #30 for #40 and some future 2nds, then wound up getting Butler (who no one thought would be there).

 

[Coach Ellis]

Steal of the draft, baby!

Would’ve been at #30 too - getting him at #40 is just icing on the cake.

Sounds like everyone should be pretty happy then right?

Why were people saying we picked up Kyle Anderson?

Hard not to be hyped about the pick. But it definitely feels weird to be gassing up the 40th pick so hard.

Yes.

Couldn't tell you.

So are the Jazz really not going to go get another wing?

Oh fish you missed a good one… let’s just say right now I’m laying naked in a pile of banana bread with @Hearsky ‘s mom and both of us got big smiles on our faces.

I am baking some banana bread for Vrenz and I am on a keto diet
