Following potential 2017 draftees...

Maybe his acl drops him too us with a later pick??

I'm losing interest in Hartenstein. He has potential, but I'm not confident he'll pull it together.

OG can guard 3s and 4s. If he's dropping, it's because of the injury and how it affects his timetable. You'd be drafting a player who likely can't play this summer and won't be ready in the fall.

He's still learning to shoot, but he's got some really nice tools to work with...

This is a really good write-up on DJ Wilson. If he can mature and grow into a Stretch-4/5, he could be a valuable piece. I think he's a strong candidate for the Jazz, possibly at 24. I just hate the lack of rebounding.

We need to get him if he falls past 14.

He seems to have some nice mobility, could be a strength. I only see him playing some small ball 5 in the NBA though. See him as strictly a 4

Based on name alone you have to draft OG... he's the OG

Who's most likely to fall to 24?

-Bam
-Leaf
-Patton
-Giles
-Justin Jackson
-Allen

Of them, I like Jackson and Bam.

Bam being available at 24 isnt falling, it's him being available at 24. He is probably available at 30 too.

It's so tough to put together a big board this year. So much talent that is similar after you get past a certain point. All of them with different pros and cons. I've been working on mine off and on all day with very little progress. I have a headache lol.

An ACL injury isnt causing him to drop, it's the fact that he is only theoretically a good player.

Jazz should draft Monte Morris and Deonte Burton. They are great players!

What does a team that plays slow and in the halfcourt need most offensively? Efficient half-court players. Lauri Markkanen lead the entire NCAA in half-court scoring efficiency with 1.25 ppp. Food for thought.

Exactly. The problem with OG is that he's quite possibly the worst offensive player in the draft. He's a 3 and D prospect who was never really a good shooter. He shot 45% last year on an extremely small sample(29 attempts total for the season, under 1 attempt per game) while shooting 45% from FT. That's DeAndre Jordan and Andre Drummond level bad. This year he's at 31% from 3 on 2.9 attempts per game and 56% from FT. He does NOT project to be even an average shooter in the league.

Right now he projects as a less-skilled version(if that's possible) of MKG...

Interesting article about how NBA teams have performed in the draft in the last 40 years:

The Jazz are 41% above expected value and rank 3d in the league:

I think the Phoenix trades No 4 for No 2 + Deng's contract to the Lakers are realistic and reasonable for both parties.

I really don't think the Lakers will trade back after the league gave them the #2 pick. The movement in the draft will happen once the top 3-4 picks are off the board.

But it will be interesting to see if someone bails out the Lakers from Mozgov or Deng.
