Potential Promise to DJ Wilson?

[Jazz4ever]

2.3 free throw attempts per40 is just awful. Very little in the way of ball handling or playmaking skills. Most of his garbage points will not be there in the NBA, so if you take that aspect of his production away, I'm not sure with what you're left with. I would be more comfortable picking him at 42.

Utah promised Jordan Adams at 23 in 2014. Memphis took him at 22.

Did they really? I remember Locke said post-draft that Utah had Hood 11th on their board and they tried to trade up for him with every team after the lottery. I assume they were using 23 to trade up, but who knows.

I don't know much more about him than what I've seen in this video but he looks pretty good for me.

Seems like he hunts the bball, good screener and has good court awareness and positioning.

I wouldnt waste my DJ pick for him on 24. For 30 it seems ok.

Love his >80% from the stripe, he's not falling from the 1st round.

he looks like he has that "inner fire", which i've really come to appreciate after watching Rudy and Draymond blossom. Looks to be a hard worker, has some motor skill for a big guy, and what Jazz fan can't appreciate a big man that sprints the floor on transition?

Anyone else see at least a little bit of a Robert Horry type in Wilson?

Jazz VP of personnel Walt Perrin was asked about the reported first-round guarantee for D.J. Wilson.

"Did not happen. Did not happen."


Kyle Goon @kylegoon

Perrin was asked how many times the Jazz have guaranteed to draft a player in his 16 years.

"Never."

Pretty sure the C.J. Miles guarantee was well documented at the time, since at least three of us here remembered and specifically mentioned it. But maybe Perrin forgot about it. It wouldn't surprise me if that was the only one, though.

Waste of a pick.

A soft and inconsistent player with nice offensive skills but zero motivation to play defense? We already have Trey Lyles. We don't need another one.

Lol wut? He isnt a great defender, but he definitely tries on defense. He lacks some fundamentals, but he puts in a lot of effort defensively.
