Utah Jazz: 10 potential draft targets in NCAA Tournament
Robert Woodard II, Mississippi State
*Stats provided as of 3/7/20
Mississippi State’s Robert Woodard II is another player who has taken a huge step forward as a sophomore. It’s not very surprising, being that he’s a full-time starter these days, but it’s still impressive to see him balling out.
The 20 year old guard/forward is averaging 11.4 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 33.2 minutes. He’s shooting 44 percent from the three-point line and 49 percent overall. He got off to a fast start this season for the Bulldogs and hasn’t looked back.
Woodard’s biggest improvement has easily been his perimeter shooting. He’s become a dangerous threat from outside. His mechanics are solid and he gets it off in a hurry. I’d like to see him shoot even more (30-69) but the improvement is evident.
Another thing I love about Woodard is his size. He’s 6’7″ tall and has a beefy 230 pound frame. The physicality portion of the league shouldn’t be a concern at this moment. He also does a tremendous job rebounding for his position.

The Utah Jazz will have a handful of options during the first round of the 2020 NBA Draft. These 10 players could be intriguing options, but honestly, there’s a lot more prospects that you should watch during the NCAA Tournament.
