Charlotte Hornets: 2019 NBA Mock Draft Vol. 1

No. 23 – Utah Jazz:

Zachary Padmore – Jordan Nwora. (Louisville)

“Jordan Nwora is going to be a sneaky good option for teams picking late in the first round. He made a ton of improvements in his sophomore campaign, and is now a first round possibility.

He’s going to be a project, but with the upside he has, a team would be really excited to add him late into the first round. He’s another versatile player that can shoot it from distance and make plays at the rim. His draft stock is on the rise at the moment.

Utah easily has one of the better player development staffs in the entire league, so this would be an ideal landing spot for Nwora, especially because they could use another wing player to develop.”

Giovanni Spillman – Jordan Nwora. (Louisville)

“The Jazz currently are a nice team with not a lot of areas to improve in. The only option I see them going with the 23rd spot would be Jordan Nwora.

Nwora is a great scorer, and he would fit well next to another former Louisville alumni in Donovan Mitchell. During the course of this season, Nwora averaged 17 points and 7.6 rebounds per game.

I see a lot of potential with this prospect, as he has gotten better tremendously from his freshman year in college. I can see him taking the next step and being a future starter with the Utah Jazz.”
