Western · Northwest · proj. 19–63
Utah's franchise cornerstone and a unicorn-sized scoring forward who poured in 26.7 a night on 60.8% true shooting, stretching the floor at 7-foot with 35.5% from deep and an elite 89.6% at the line. He almost never turns it over (98th percentile ball security) and draws fouls with the best of them, but he's a poor playmaker and a real liability defending in space.
