Why The Utah Jazz Do The Deal 

Okoro won’t be ready to impact games like Beasley. That’s fine. The Jazz may not want to be winning games. 

Of course, at 22-24, they’re far behind in the Victor Wembanyama sweepstakes. That’s fine too. The upcoming draft is deep, and the Jazz still have an opportunity to pick in the lottery. 

Meanwhile, Okoro still has an intriguing upside at 21. He’s a hyper-athletic wing who can guard multiple positions. If his three ever does start to fall, he could be a perfect glue guy for a contender.

Finally, Ricky Rubio is a quality veteran for a rebuilding team to have around. His veteran guidance should benefit the young players on this Jazz roster.
