SALT LAKE CITY — A day before the NBA lottery selection, the Utah Jazz sit in the No. 4 spot in the draft — a draft many expect to bring several stars into the league.
As a result, the Jazz will likely acquire a player that could have a significant impact on the makeup of the team. However, finding that player is often difficult and nearly impossible to predict.
The Jazz are guaranteed to at least pick one of the top seven players, but could potentially draft in the top three. The following are 10 players that could be available on the board when the Jazz draft and what you should know about each of them.
Some of these players may drop as the draft draws near — I'm looking at you Doug McDermott. But the following list is of the top 10 projected picks in the draft.
The listed strengths and weaknesses of the following players have been compiled from Draft Express and from personally watching highlight videos.
