The jazz wont have a top5 pick if they play Lauri. See the past two years. Why would it be different this year? Sexton is good too. Clarkson cant play worse, I don’t think. Keyonye and Kessler should be better.

This said, keeping Lauri absent a great deal is the best move. Just get under 8 to assure you keep the pick and be dine with that stupid OkC protection every year.
