While Isaiah Collier and the USC Trojans failed to make the 2024 March Madness tournament, he showed physical, on-ball defensive potential that has him currently projected as a lottery pick. He’s certainly a unique player: being built like a linebacker with point guard abilities. With Utah collecting the most turnovers in the league last season, having a genuine point guard might assist the Jazz in constructing a roster ready for “big game hunting”. Collier was once viewed as a top-5 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, but a hand injury suffered on January 10 tanked his draft stock by a margin.
