The Utah Jazz picked the freshman star from Rutgers fifth overall in the NBA Draft, even though he hadn't even worked out for them. But the 18-year old hasn't just shown up. He's officially a member of the Jazz. As is standard for first-round picks, Bailey's deal is a four-year contract with a two-year team option for the second half.

The 6-foot-10 guard was a highly touted prospect in the 2025 NBA Draft and was eventually selected by Utah with the 5th overall pick.

Will Utah Jazz draft pick Ace Bailey be there when the Salt Lake City Summer League begins? While a new ESPN report raises more questions, his agency says he is “thrilled to be going to Utah."
