Fun fact: there are only three players on the Utah Jazz roster who have been picked higher than the ninth overall pick in their respective NBA Drafts. Those three are Lauri Markkanen (No. 7 in 2017), Ace Bailey (No. 5 in 2025), and Kevin Love (No. 5 in 2008). Like Love was, Bailey came into the NBA with high expectations. He has started to break out a little, and Love says it's only a taste of what's to come.
In an interview with RG's DJ Siddiqi, Love explained his rapport with Bailey while stressing his belief that his improved play of late is only the first sign of what's to come.
