Following potential 2017 draftees...

Per Chad Ford:

A number of GMs believe that Jackson received a draft promise after an impressive first day at the NBA combine. The question is where.

Several teams in the 20s are potential culprits. The Jazz don't historically make promises to players and I don't think they did here, but they like him and his combination of athleticism and shooting are a fit.

Jody says we are talking with Minny. #30 and Favs for Rubio? #24 and capspace?

Woj says Boston is still in

At least Boston no longer has the #1 pick. Wonder if Philly would get involved.

 

[seattlejazzfan]

Doubt it. He went to the draft cuz Coach K forced him out.

Shooter better not be Anderson... would be so short sighted.

Luke Kennard hopefully.

Lydon qualifies as a shooter.

Most probably Tyler Lydon.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Most probably Tyler Lydon.

A shooter in the draft... I get it... though it was in trade market.

 

[Elizah Huge]

You guys think we would be packaging current and future picks to move up for Lydon when he could be there at 24?

Please.

I don't know why some of you are down on Lydon. He's a 6'10" guy who can shoot 50-40-85, while holding his own on the boards and making an effort to defend. He really stands out to me once you get to the 20s in this draft.

Malik Monk?

Yeah, why would we trade up to get him though?

If the Jazz move up, its for one of the Collins, Mitchell or maybe Kennard imo. Im sure they'd take Monk too if they could get that high, but it's unlikely.

Yeah, given Thib's comments about wanting a big man who can defend and block shots, Favors to them makes some sense.

We wouldn't. We'd take him at 24.

I'd rather have Lydon at 24 than Kennard at 12 or so plus whatever it cost to move up. I think Kennard is the obvious target if you move up for a shooter and I am really not a big fan. There is stuff to like but I worry about his length and athleticism at the next level.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Favs for Rubio straight up?

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

The Jazz apparently like Jordan Clarkson, and the Lakers are willing to move him. Something to keep an eye on. Just not as high a priority as the PG situation.

Per an article by Andy Larsen Favs house was put up for sale on Tuesday.
