Purdue senior Trevion Williams was among the draft-eligible prospects slated to work out with the Utah Jazz on Thursday, according to Eric Walden of the Salt Lake Tribune.
Williams, who was named the Big Ten Sixth Man of the Year, averaged 12 points, 7.4 rebounds and three assists in 37 games. He was the only player nationally in the last 30 years to average at least 12 points, seven rebounds and three assists in under 25 minutes per game.
The 6-foot-10 forward is considered to be a potential second-round pick this year after a strong season with the Boilermakers. He was also among the standouts at the draft combine last week, recording 14 points, 13 rebounds and five assists in one scrimmage game.

In addition to Williams, the Jazz also hosted UConn guard R.J. Cole, Wichita State guard Tyson Etienne, UCLA guard Johnny Juzang, Seton Hall guard Jared Rhoden and Akoldah Gak of the Illawarra Hawks (National Basketball League) on Thursday.
The Jazz are currently the only team in the NBA without a draft pick this year. They could look to acquire a pick on draft night or use their intel from any workouts conducted to potentially target a player in free agency that goes undrafted.
The NBA draft will take place on June 23.
