June 07, 2024 Utah Jazz draft talk with Krysten Peek from Yahoo Sports
Krysten Peek was kind enough to join me and talk about the upcoming 2024 NBA draft. We went over the different prospects, including Alex Sarr, Zaccharie Risacher, and Stephon Castle. In Peek's latest mock draft she has the Jazz taking Rob Dillingham.
We then talked about Cooper Flagg, Ace Bailey and the 2025 NBA draft as well. Is it worth tanking for Cooper Flagg? What happens if the Jazz don't get the #1 pick? Is it still worth going after Flagg? It sounds like there's so much talent it's absolutely possible.
We also talked about LeBron James' son Bronny James and the possibility of him going to the Lakers. Were the Jazz interested in working out Bronny James?
