Jazz call their shot and take Ace Bailey at No. 5 in NBA Draft. Plus, Utah moves up to grab Walter Clayton Jr. and Suns land Khaman Maluach at No. 10 (with Jason Walker) | Episode 28

Tyler King is joined by Jason Walker from the Cache Valley Dailey and the Full Court Press on 106.9 in Logan to break down the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft, which was headlined by the Jazz's decision to go against Ace Bailey's reported desires and bring the Rutgers star to Utah as the potential face of the franchise. They talk about Bailey's fit on a young roster and how he can change the perception he doesn't want to be in Salt Lake City. Then, they discuss Utah's decision to move up three spots in the middle of the first round to draft Florida star point guard Walter Clayton Jr., who is fresh off a national championship with the Gators. Finally, they wrap up by discussing Phoenix's interesting night that included a selection of Khaman Maluach at No. 10 and a trade for Mark Williams; the destinations for BYU's Egor Demin, Arizona's Carter Bryant and Colorado State's Nique Clifford before hitting on some of the other big storylines from around the league.
