And he got signed by the Jazz

who drafted Filipowski and have Lauri Markkanen, Luka Samanic, John Collins and Walker Kessler ahead of him. For his size, he moves too slow. He has to be 2 or 3" taller to be as methodical and slow as he plays at this point. There's a reason he wasn't drafted. How many shots did he take outside of 10 feet and make? He's not a ferocious rim-protector, and he's not a lock-down defender. What does he do well besides rebound the ball well in college? He's also 24, which does not help him at all. There are only 8 guys on their roster older than him (out of 21 listed on NBA.com) and they all have multiple years in the NBA. He's way behind the 8-ball on making a roster at this point. Can still make plenty of money overseas though. Edit: I don't know how much 2-way contracts are. I can see him sticking with that (instead of overseas) and playing a few games for the Jazz, but not an every night on the bench player. The G-League is starting to keep more players in the States at first it seems. ** Edited by hoosnowahokie at 7/10/2024, 2:50:53 PM

OT - Reason Kyle Filipowski dropped so low in draft

I was wondering why Edey and Bacot dropped so low. I thought Edey

I'll be shocked if Bacot makes a roster in the NBA

Even though he played for UNC, I always enjoyed watching Bacot

I won't be. Not big enough? The guy's 6'-10", 240 lbs and has started
