Trey Burke, PG Michigan (9)
The Jazz filled their biggest need with the best prospect at that position in this draft, it's hard to do much better than that in a draft. Burke is a perfect fit for Utah and should excel with the talent around him. He has bigs to run pick-and-roll with and a couple of promising young wings. Their biggest need in free agency is shooters however, I could see a return of Kyle Korver. Utah gave up the number 21 and 14 picks to get this, but it was worth.
Rudy Gobert, C France (27)
The Jazz are facing losing both Paul Millsap and Al Jefferson to free agency, so frontcourt depth could be a big need soon. I expect them to re-sign one of them, but it will still be a need. Gobert has big time potential and elite length. He could be an elite defender and roll-man, though might take some time to get there and Utah can afford to give it to him.
Projected Rotation
PG: Trey Burke/Mo Williams (UFA)
SG: Alec Burks/Williams
SF: Gordon Heyward/Marvin Williams
PF: Paul Millsap (UFA)/Favors
C: Derrick Favors/Enes Kanter/Rudy Gobert
