He dribbles well at full sprint. He shoots 33% from 3. He's good at second chance and offensive rebounds. He shoots 73% FT.

I'd say his strengths listed here could remind one a little of Draymond.

#12 got us George Hill. Curious what #6 can get. Inb4 Jazz fans on twitter say "SIGN RICKY AND TRADE HIM FOR THE 6TH PICK"
But seriously though, who could they trade for? If there's a package for Conley involving that pick, there's no way we can top that. Maybe NOP relents and trades Holiday and AD and they end up with like the 1st, 4th, and 6th picks and other stuff.
I'd just keep the pick and sign Rubio to a short term deal so they at least have someone who can run an offense

There isn't really a Draymond Green in this draft. You're talking about an All NBA defensive type who can go end-to-end and make plays off the dribble. I'd be impressed if Deandre Hunter could do all those things.
They'd ask for Mitchell. We'd say no.
They'd ask Sacto for Fox. Sacto would say no.
The Lakers would offer Ball. Phoenix would probably say no (at least they should).
Milwaukee would offer to send back Bledsoe. Phoenix would say no.
New York would offer Dennis Smith. Phoenix would say no.
Yeah, J'rue might be worth #6 if NOLA is ready to move on. There aren't too many options.
It sounds like Phoenix wants Garland, but he won't be there.
They wouldn't
They aren't trying to collect picks. They are trying to win now. His shot is really irrelevant. They aren't trading him unless it's in a package for something that helps them win now.
David Locke on his podcast today sure sounded like he was trying to set people's expectations that we're going to trade the pick. He was going on and on about how late first-round picks rarely pan out. Nevermind that the best player on our team was picked at #27, the last All Star we drafted was Millsap at #47, and that Toronto is in the NBA Finals with several late picks, including Marc Gasol and Kyle Lowry.
If Keldon Johnson, Mfiondu Kabengele or Darius Bazley are available at #23, there'd better be a pretty obvious deal for us to trade out of the draft. Even Dylan Windler would make a difference.

Same with Jones, and radio talking heads.
Interesting timing for all of this too because it comes after a few huge workouts.

If I were in the Jazz organization, I’d leak like crazy to Locke about anything and everything EXCEPT who I really like. Wouldn’t let on with that info at all.
