With the Villanova Wildcats standing tall and holding the National Championship, the college basketball season is officially over. It’s time to switch gears and look at which NBA prospects could help the Utah Jazz.

The Utah Jazz did the right thing when they were 19-28 and 10th in the Western Conference. They didn’t throw in the towel and tank for the rest of the season, which is shockingly what many wanted them to do. They got back up, threw a punch and now sit at fourth in the Western Conference with 45 wins.

Utah may not be picking in the lottery, but when you have a General Manager like Dennis Lindsey, you can find talent anywhere in the draft. The Jazz will likely be picking somewhere in the 20’s, and in a pretty deep draft, they should be able to find a good fit. Let’s dive in and take a look at some prospects who I think would be good targets for the Jazz.
