I agree I mean he does have range and he's great at getting open under the basket for his little dinky lay ups but I'd be surprised if he's on the Jazz's roster come the start of the regular season.

I'm not the most knowledgable basketball can but it feels like the nba clubs don't get it to wrong to often and that the top 3 draft picks tend to end up being pretty special. With the millions of dollars they put in to combines, recruting etc they wouldn't want to he it to wrong to often

Are you thinking of Dante Exum mate? He was a Top 5 pick by the Jazz where as Brock Motum went undrafted but did alright on Utah's summer league team so they gave him an invite to training camp and signed him to a non-guaranteed contract.
The jury is still out on Exum though and NBA teams do made mistakes sometimes big ones like Hasheem Thabeet who was just traded to Philadelphia and immediately waived would struggle as an import in the NBL and he was a former #2 pick overall.

I have seen nothing from him that says top 5 draft pick, was very surprised he went that high.
I hope he comes out and does well, but wouldn't be surprised if he just ends up as a back up PG

Play college for a year or two for peanuts instead of the millions the NBA pays? His rookie contract will expire at a younger age too and then he'll earn what he deserves which should be higher if he turns out to be the player they expect him to be. Plus the fact his improvement will be greater spending that year or two in the NBA.
