Some Final Prospects

The guys listed so far are the ones predicted to go to the Jazz in mock drafts from major outlets. However, there are certainly other intriguing options Utah could pursue with the 21st pick. Two that stand out to me are Keita Bates-Diop from Ohio State and Khryi Thomas from Creighton, the both of which my J-Notes colleague Zack Padmore discussed in some detail in the article below:

Lonnie Walker out of Miami is another intriguing prospect, but I’m not entirely sure that he will be available once the Jazz pick at No. 21. If they feel that he’s their guy, they may very well need to move up in the draft to nab him.

There are certainly several other options that the Jazz may consider and ultimately select in the upcoming 2018 Draft, but this selection of players included in a number of mock drafts should at least give Jazz fans an idea of some of the possibilities.

What do you think, Jazz fans? Are any of these guys your dream target for the Jazz? Or is there someone who wasn’t mentioned that you’d really like to see brought into Salt Lake City? Be sure to let me know in the comments below or on Twitter.
