The intrigue for Thursday's NBA draft is lessened by the Jazz trade to acquire George Hill for the No. 12 pick, but look for Utah's Jakob Poeltl to go in the Top 10 and Weber State's Joel Bolomboy to perhaps slip into the first round.
SALT LAKE CITY — With more draft picks than all but two other NBA teams, the Utah Jazz expected to be busy for Thursday night’s draft at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Before Wednesday’s announcement of an expected trade of their first pick to get Indiana’s George Hill, the Jazz had four draft picks in the two-round draft, more than any team except Boston, which has eight picks and Denver, which has five picks.
