The Utah Jazz have selected Ace Bailey with the 5th Pick of the 2025 NBA Draft!

ace Bailey is a phenomenal talent but due to some parts of his game that need refinement is it worth spending a top five pick on a player who’s not ready to be a bonafide star from day one that’s the question that teams picking two through five in the draft after Cooper Flag goes number one are going to have to answer there’s also the why wasn’t Ruters better with two top five draft picks question now as for Ace Bailey he can pull up from anywhere and hit anything his talent as a shotmaker is one of the best coming out of the college ranks that I’ve seen in a long time his size and length and athleticism scream prototypical NBA wing but Bailey has a lot of growth when it comes to decision-making and handling the basketball to balance his offensive giftedness I was impressed by the strides and desire Bailey took defensively in his lone year at Ruters those physical god-given attributes should translate to great success defensively if he continues to apply himself there’s also the potential for playing multiple positions in this positionless age which is great when that person is 610 210 if Bailey can become a more consistent shooter make better decisions grow in his handle and keep making strides defensively the sky’s the limit
