9. Utah Jazz - Ron Holland, G/F, G League Ignite

As the Utah Jazz prepares to make another top-10 selection in the 2024 NBA Draft, it'll be interesting to see the path that they take. On paper, the Jazz could very much end up targeting a wing player with high upside at this point in the draft. If that's a route they end up taking, one prospect that could make some sense for the rebuilding Jazz is Ron Holland out of the G League Ignite team.

Even though Holland has had his inconsistencies with the G League Ignite, there's no question that his natural talent and high ceiling are exactly what the Jazz could be searching for in a long-term project. Initially, Holland is going to translate as a defensive-minded wing that could feast on the first break.

Because of his athleticism and defensive prowess, there's no question that Holland will be able to carve out a place in the league. The question is, will his offense develop enough that he could potentially emerge as a future star?
