Take Collin Sexton, make him 3 inches taller, keep the wingspan the same, make him a better one-foot jumper--I think this is what VJ is going to look like early in his career. He's a super high-energy, athletic combo guard who can make shots with his feet set. That's still a very valuable player, and he can get you 18/4/3 probably, but he's probably your third guy rather than your 1A or 1B. Defensively, he should have an impact.

VJ can't dribble or create offense at all.

He's more like a more athletic, low motor Jalen Suggs (which nets out to around Jalen Suggs in impact)

Feels kinda like getting a 3rd pick to me since I can’t decide amongst the 3.. lol..

Disappointment of getting the #5 pick is gone for me.

That's kind of where I"m at now. Granted, I'd prefer the Jazz have the choice of the 3 and (obviously) would have rather seen them get 1 or 2, but it does feel like there's a big drop off past these 5. Of course, that can be said every year and then a 6-12 pick becomes a much better pick.

Sexton can stop and go, but otherwise he doesn't have much wiggle either. He beats people with sheer effort and picking the right moment to burst. VJ can do that. What Sexton achieves with relentless motor, VJ can achieve with athletic superiority.

Sexton scores off of hard drives to the rim, 3PAs with his feet set, and his mid-range jumper as a counter. VJ has shown he can do those things.
 
It's Ace or Tre for me. I will be really happy if one of them is there at 5 or if we trade up to get them. I will be disappointed with anyone else, including V.J.

I feel the same way. I will get excited eventually and talk myself into Kas or VJ or whoever (im a homer after all) but at the moment someones name besides Ace or Tre are announced on draft day it will feel similar to the moment I found out we got the 5th pick on lottery night.
