See what ESPN draft experts Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo said about Jeremiah Fears' ability and potential fit with the Jazz.

As we get closer to the 2025 NBA Draft, we are already starting to hear rumors about which top prospects are drawing the most attention from teams.

After only one year at Oklahoma, Jeremiah Fears is heading to the NBA. Alas, not everybody is convinced that Fears is ready for the next level. On the Game Theory Podcast, The Athletic draft expert Sam Vecenie provided an in-depth evaluation of Fears’ game.

Looking at all five picks, the leader is Spanish wing Hugo Gonzalez with four mentions followed by Israeli point guard Ben Saraf and American power forwards Yaxel Lendebourg and Rasheer Fleming, with three each. Overall, more than a dozen players are linked to Brooklyn. So a lot of uncertainty.

According to ESPN's Jonathan Givony, there is "quite a bit of enthusiasm in NBA circles" for Texas' Tre Johnson and Oklahoma's Jeremiah Fears. Givony noted that both players could be in the mix starting at No. 3 overall in the draft, behind Cooper Flagg and Dylan Harper.

NBA Draft Lottery is Monday with the Jazz, Wizards and Hornets all having a 14% chance of landing the No. 1 pick. Thunder could land Philadelphia's pick.

NBA draft is not until June 25, so there is plenty of time for draft rankings to shift over the next month and a half.
