Ace Bailey didn't expect to hear his name called by the Utah Jazz with the No. 5 overall pick on Wednesday night in Brooklyn. Leading up to the 2025 NBA Draft, reports suggested that neither Utah nor Charlotte -- which held the No.

Wisconsin standout John Tonje was selected at No. 53 by the Utah Jazz in the 2025 NBA draft on June 26. The Badgers' senior earned him consensus second-team All-American honors, which helped his draft prospects despite being an older prospect after playing six collegiate seasons.
