Layden said they'd like to trade up "into the top" because "our greatest need is a perimeter player and there are a lot of good perimeter players that high up" On the other hand Layden says such a trade probably isn't feasible because the asking price for such a pick is "too much for an unproven commodity" So let's assume the Jazz stay at No 23 Can they find a standout perimeter player so late in the first round? "No" predicts Layden "The rest of the league knows you've got to have guys on the perimeter Why would they leave a guy like that in the draft?" What kind of player then are the Jazz hoping to find? "Ideally he'd be a small forward who can shoot" said Layden "But I'm not sure a guy that will be there Still that would be our priority "Mostly we need to focus on a guy who can make our team a guy who can play in the league I don't think we can look for a guy who'll step in and help us right away" Last year the Jazz picked swing-ma- n Blue Edwards at No 21 Edwards ended up averaging 89 points in 23 minutes per game He was named to the NBA's second team Perhaps remembering that Atlanta had the No 23 pick last year See D-- Is English - Column 2 k t'ff) LI t':1'-i-- t 0 i 17-i::::''- -- - L :4 4' 4'1 r::?: " Ili 'Lt4'4 41 z ''k 'Vli 4r ': Z ' -s -- - I : 0?-'''- ' - :k :'!0 ' ?
