Four 2024 NBA Draft Prospects for Jazz Fans to Watch
The focus of the Utah Jazz season has recently shifted to youth development. Along with this youth development, eyes have started to shift towards the offseason when the Jazz will have an opportunity to add to their young core.
Today, we’ll look at some of the most highly touted non-one-and-done prospects in college basketball this year. The Jazz are currently projected to retain their own first-round draft pick in the top 10 of the lottery.
These prospects are currently projected somewhere in the lottery to the mid-first round. Let’s jump in and highlight four guys to watch throughout their upcoming conference and NCAA tournaments.
Dalton Knecht | W | Tennessee
Kyle Filipowski | C | Duke
Donovan Clingan | C | UConn
Kel’el Ware | C | Indiana
One of the top recruits out of his high school class, Ware has had a big bounce-back season after a forgettable freshman campaign at Oregon. Averaging nearly 16 points, 10 rebounds, and two blocks per contest, my primary intrigue around Ware comes from his potential to both protect the rim on defense and space the floor offensively.
The 7-footer is shooting 44% from deep this season, albeit on just 36 total attempts. If the shot is real, which I still question, Ware could become a unique weapon in the NBA.
