Lyles averaged 8.7 points and 5.2 rebounds for the Wildcats and was named to the Southeastern Conference All-Freshman team after his lone collegiate season.
The Jazz went into the offseason needing shooting after averaging the fifth-fewest points per game last season. Frontcourt depth became a priority after moving Enes Kanter to the Thunder at the deadline.
The Jazz finished the season with a 38-44 record, a 13-game improvement from the 2013-14 season, and were slotted No. 12 after a tiebreak drawing with the Pacers.
The Jazz also own the No. 42 pick and the No. 54 selection.
