Utah Jazz- No. 12 pick: Trey Lyles

Redraft: Frank Kaminsky

The Utah Jazz need a stretch-four in the 2015 NBA draft. They went with Trey Lyles, the standout freshman from Kentucky, and this pick could have been different if Frank “the Tank” Kaminsky was still on the board.

Proving his skills during the NCAA tournament, Kaminsky raised his stock immensely. Kaminsky had a mediocre rookie year in Charlotte. He got the ability to prove his potential in Charlotte and managed to find himself as the starting power forward.

Kaminsky barely missed All-Rookie Second Team voting.

With the Utah frontcourt being loaded with size but no shooting, Frank could have placed his mark as a solid role player on the Jazz behind bigs Derrick Favors and Rudy Gobert.

Frank Kaminsky would have been a great pick for Utah Jazz.

Next: No. 11
