Likely a seller, but possibly a buyer.

They have the Okur TPE, and I have to imagine they are hoping to move Harris for a better fit.

I would love to see the Jazz move Harris for a mid first rounder in this draft for several reasons if we can't move him for another PG.

1. There is a chance we could end up with the GSW pick, and our own pick both in the mid to late lotto. If we can get another pick in the middle first round, I think we'd be in an excellent position to move up in the draft by packaging all three to end up top 5 similar to the Deron draft. We don't need several picks, we need high picks.

2. There is a chance we don't end up with either our pick, or the GSW pick this year, and I think we are a solid draft pick away from really taking off. If we could get something in the late teens for Harris, I'd love to nab Kendall Marshall. He's very similar to Earl Watson, only younger, and with more potential. With how many options we have on this team, getting the best passer in the league would be a huge addition.

Isn't this draft big heavy with little to no PG prospects in the lottery? I don't really follow the draft all that much during the regular season, but that seems to be the common thought around here. If that is indeed the case, why would we want another top 5 big man when we already have two solid vets and two solid prospects?
