Dzanan Musa – SF, KK Cedevita

Height: 6’9″ | Weight: 185 | Age: 18

Stats (all competitions): 12.4 PPG, 3.3 RPG, 47.6% FG

It’s a little bit outdated at this point, but in a previous Sports Illustrated mock draft from April 21, SI’s Jeremy Woo had the Jazz taking international product Dzanan Musa with the 21st overall pick. Here’s what he had to say about the Bosnian product:

"Utah can go a number of directions here to complement Donovan Mitchell, and adding another perimeter threat for the long term is a sensible move at this slot. Musa is a natural scorer who’s still expanding out his skill set and brings a lot to the table. He’s advanced for a younger international prospect, and would eventually be a good addition to Utah’s core group. He may never give you much defensively, but could become a strong complementary threat."

My two cents: Musa has a lot of promise and has enough size to be a potentially solid stretch-four option for Utah, but at just 18 years of age, he’s likely going to be a bit of a project and certainly comes with some risk. The Jazz would need to be pretty convinced of his potential for me to feel comfortable with them drafting him, but he has the chance to develop into a versatile scorer.
