SALT LAKE CITY — Multiple NBA teams' first-round draft picks will be in Utah on Sunday.

The Jazz will audition an intriguing group of players for one of their final workouts prior to next Thursday's draft.

The six-man session will include Kansas power forward Marcus Morris and Florida State small forward Chris Singleton, both of whom are lottery projections. Seeming first-round small forwards Jordan Hamilton (Texas), Tobias Harris (Tennessee) and Tyler Honeycutt (UCLA) will also workout, along with Illinois-Chicago's Paul Carter.

The Jazz have the third and 12th picks and small forward is one spot the team could have a void with the potential departures of Andrei Kirilenko and C.J. Miles.

As usual, Sunday's workout is closed to the public.
