2019 NBA Draft: Utah Jazz cast wide net in draft looking for second-round gems

The Utah Jazz went into draft night with a good chunk of its offseason work already done, having secured another play-maker in the form of Mike Conley. Getting the veteran cost Utah it’s top pick in the draft, the 23rd overall selection, leaving Dennis Lindsey with just the 53rd overall pick.

That didn’t stop Lindsey and the rest of the front office staff from being very active late in the draft. They acquired two extra second-round picks — the 50th and 58th — and ended up taking three players. In order, these players were forward Jarrell Brantley, combo guard Justin Wright-Foreman and shooting guard Miye Oni.
