With the 21st pick, the Utah Jazz select…

High mock: 20  Low Mock: 30
Height: 6-4  Weight: 210  Wingspan: 6-10.5  Age: 22
2017-18 Stats: 15.1 PTS, 4.4 REB, 1.7 STL, .538 FG, .411 3PT, .788 FT

He’s 22 years old, i.e. one of the oldest players in the draft pool, so you have to question his upside. Still, Thomas could be an early rotation player as a 3-and-D guy of the Avery Bradley mold. Has those really long, Donovan Mitchell-esque measurements and was committed to being a physical defender in college.

Khyris Thomas is also one of the best shooters in the draft. Even if his potential really is limited, I would argue he has a high floor. He’ll help teams win games for a lot of years. If the Jazz do end up with him, it’s probably a win.
