Jazz chose Es Bailey in the fifth pick, and refused to try out for multiple teams

The Jazz picked Es Bailey, a freshman striker from Rutgers University, with the fifth pick. Bailey refused to participate in the trials with the Sixers, Hornets and Jazz because he wanted more ball rights and offensive roles.

Bailey is 2.03 meters tall, and is a second-largest alumnus of Dylan Harper. Bailey is an offensively dynamic player, averaging 17.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.3 blocks and 1 steal in his freshman season. Bailey is a top scorer who can score goals at any position on the court, and can use his size to create mobile phone opportunities at any time. Bailey is also an excellent cul-point pitcher, attacking poor dives, but sometimes willing to shoot mid-range rather than breaking to the basket, and some poor choices hurt his offensive efficiency. Pele's fast attack attack basket is better than the half-court positional battle.

Bailey had excellent defense during college and had the opportunity to become the top defenseman in the NBA. But he needs to be stronger. His offensive rebounds are also better than defensive rebounds, which needs to be changed in the professional league.
