Yoeli Childs – BYU forward
Yoeli Childs had an impressive college career at BYU, and over four years at Brigham Young, he managed to improve in every way over his time, and while it hasn’t translated into success at the next level yet, he will still have plenty of opportunities to find himself in an NBA uniform in the future. Childs has just announced that he will be heading to Germany to play with Hamburg Towers, but before then, he has accepted an invite to Summer League with the Jazz, where he will put his versatile scoring ability on display, in hopes of making it back to the States and the next level in the coming years.
In his final season at BYU in 2019-20, Childs averaged 22 points and 9 rebounds a game, while shooting 48% from beyond the arc, and while that may not be possible at the next level, he certainly has the size and ability to be a consistent scorer off the bench. He hasn’t been able to find consistent playing time on a team since going un-drafted in 2020, but if he can impress in the Summer League in Utah and then head out to Germany and continue to improve his game, he’s still young and experienced enough to potentially find playing time in the NBA in the future.
