As Thursday night’s NBA draft approached, there was exponentially-growing curiosity about whether the Utah Jazz would use the often-freewheeling affair to make some sort of seismic move. Turns out, there was only a hint of a tremor.
. The 6-foot-5, 209-pound guard with a 6-11 wingspan spent his freshman season at Kentucky, but burst onto the national scene as a sophomore during UCLA’s run through the NCAA Tournament.
As for Cockburn, he is a 7-foot, 285-pound behemoth who averaged 20.9 points and 10.6 rebounds rebounds per game as a junior. He also shot 59.3% from the field and 65.5% on free throws this past season. The 22-year-old native of Jamaica is thought to have an underdeveloped offensive game, and is perhaps too slow and immobile to match up with NBA players.
As for the draft itself, there were at least a few fireworks in the early going, starting right at No. 1., but hoodwinked the entire league — including the NBA’s information merchants — by instead taking Duke big man Paolo Banchero.
