This week on The Matt Cave Podcast, host Matt Smith dives into the high-stakes world of draft strategy as the Utah Jazz and Utah Mammoth prepare for back-to-back draft nights. With both teams holding top-5 picks, the pressure is on—so Matt’s breaking down what he thinks they’ll do versus what they should do.
🏀 For the Jazz, Matt predicts a predictable pick (hello, Trey Johnson) and calls out the team’s addiction to “upside” and inaction in trade talks.
🏒 For the Mammoth, he sees potential for a bold, franchise-defining move—maybe even a trade for a top-six forward.
📺 And yes, ESPN gets absolutely roasted for its lazy coverage of Utah’s sports scene.
Plus, Matt opens up about losing his day job and how that might impact game reviews going forward.
