Utah Jazz Four Lottery Picks: Derrick Favors, Gordon Hayward, Enes Kanter, and Alec Burks play Jenga

Jenga is, correct me if the info I have is wrong (I'm getting it from Wikipedia), the game of Kings. The Utah Jazz recently beat the Sacramento Kings, so we took their game too. Here is a picture taken by Eric Bresee (@da_breezman -- a producer at KJZZ) showing Utah Jazz lottery picks trying the game out. To be fair, I'm absolutely certain that Alec Burks would beat Gordon Hayward (too tentative), Derrick Favors (too strong and can get frustrated), and Enes Kanter (by the smile on his face, obviously his first time sitting at a rounded table, and unable to focus).

If the Jazz don't make the playoffs this season, and if the Golden State Warriors dunn goofed, we'll have two more lottery picks to play board games with next season. Of course, by then the Jazz won't be playing a game of falling bricks -- but looking at something more like the term "Monopoly".

I can’t believe they don’t have some kind of after picture with Kanter still smiling unawares, Hayward cowering in the corner, Burks with a sly look on his face and Favors upending the table. At least that’s how all of my Jenga games ended up.

I’d have to put my money on G-Money. As the resident gamer, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say he’s played Jenga once or twice in his day.

I went with Kanter

Jenga has to be Turkey’s national sport – he looks like he’s got insider knowledge with that grin.

I chose Gordo because he's smart.

Not saying the others aren’t, but in my mind his high bball IQ translates to high Jenga IQ.

Do these guys ever have privacy?

Can’t even play Jenga without camera flashes!

I'll make it coach.
