Ivan Rabb – PF/C

Height: 6’10”, Wingspan: 7’1 1/2″, Weight: 215

Several mock drafts have Cal sophomore Ivan Rabb going in the late 20s, meaning the Utah Jazz could maybe take a risk on him at 24, but there’s a good chance that he’d be gone by the time they select again at 30. Either way, he’s a promising prospect with good measurables that put up solid stats in his sophomore year at Cal.

Rabb averaged 14 points per game while shooting nearly 50 percent from the field and 40 percent from three, albeit on less than one attempt per game. There is some concern about his lack of improvement from his freshman to sophomore year, but if he can expand on his physical gifts, Rabb could end up being a sneaky good prospect for the Jazz.
