We're getting into that eye-of-the-beholder part of the draft.

Okay, so with the Wizards taking Tre, give it a minute to make sure the Jazz and Wizards don't just swap picks.

I guess they look at Bud as their PG of the future? And that CJ can play the position at times...?

Yeah they had to take that risk. Most major Free agents aren't going to Utah based on off the court things.

I hope he excels there though that team needs a star

I would think twice before choosing a player name Fears or Coward.

Indeed.
I hope he focuses on his kraft and excels. I hope he can be the superstar the Jazz need.


For real, they have a crazy home court

Washington: Bub Carrington, Alex Sarr, Bilal Coulibaly, Kyshawn George, Tre Johnson and AJ Johnson. They have no more needs for young wings. Now they should be turning their attention to the frontcourt.
