00:00The Jazz were understandably very excited to welcome No. 5 draft pick Ace Bailey to Utah, but that still hasn't happened yet.
00:07The team's other first-round pick, Walter Clayton Jr., flew to Utah on Thursday, but Bailey did not, and there's reportedly been minimal contact between him and the team.
00:16The Jazz are saying that he's not expected in Utah until this weekend, and what he really needs to do is be there by Monday when the team's training camp for Summer League begins.
00:23So it's not a crisis, but still seems odd, right?
00:26On Thursday night, Bailey's agent had the chance to clear things up regarding his client's future in Utah, but he declined to comment in an interview with ESPN.
00:35This is just another head-scratching move by Bailey, who canceled his pre-draft workout with the 76ers just a day before it was scheduled.
00:43And it feels hard to argue that Ace Bailey just doesn't want to be in Utah.
00:47And according to Brian Windhorst in an appearance on GetUp on Friday morning, Utah will not give in to Bailey's demands.
00:52So we'll just have to see how this one plays out, but it feels far from over.
