Nice writeup.

I don't think he gets past the Jazz at 25. He's exactly what the Jazz are missing.

I've half convinced myself Utah would take Arron Afflalo, but yeah, Almond probably is the better pick.

I used to have him going to Houston, but they need size now that they traded away Juwon Howard (I have them taking Fazekas).

Byars is another guy that could go to Utah, so I think there's a chance that Almond slips to #28. Honestly though, I have Almond going to the Pistons at #27 who need some "umph" off the bench, and having lost Delfino, this is a guy that could give it.

Still, he'd make the Spurs' draft board intriguing if he was still there at #28...

I found his pre-draft camp measurements from a year ago, he didn't attend this years camp. link

6'4.75 no shoes, 6'6 in shoes, 6'10 wingspan

Exactly. I have a very hard time believing that the Pistons would pass on him if he's available at 27.
