Dez Bryant, former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver, seemed pretty happy with Ace Bailey finally making it to Utah. Bailey was selected by the Utah Jazz as the fifth overall pick in the very first round of the NBA draft after stunning with his performance for Rutgers. Many have felt that Bailey might not actually play for the Jazz after the player has shown in the recent past that he does not bend to conventional norms, and even refused to meet some franchise owners.
As a result, Bailey’s actual touchdown in Utah came as a pleasant surprise. Ace Bailey was originally predicted to be among the top prospects in the NBA draft. However, the talented Rutgers product decided to not participate in several pre-draft workouts. As a result, his draft stock dropped to the fifth spot.
Dez Bryant reacted to a viral video clip that showed Ace Bailey landing in Utah with a flexed biceps emoji. Not only Bryant, but plenty of Utah fans seemed happy with their team’s new addition to their roster.
The Utah Jazz are desperately in need of a talented small forward like Ace Bailey, especially after the team’s utterly abysmal performance in the most recently concluded NBA season. The Jazz only managed a total of 17 wins while losing a whopping 65 games in the year, making them a fantastic unit for a young Bailey to showcase his skills.
