Yeah, Sap will be a UFA too, so if he wants to sign here, it will be very easy for him if we can meet his price.
Don't need to trade for him, Milsap only signed a 2 year deal with Hawks. He'll hit free agency next Summer.
I just meant both of them coming over together as FA's. Didn't DMC also sign a short-term deal?
The emergence of Gobert has perhaps changed the needs of the Jazz. They don't need another big whi can play the 5 - at least as part of their primary rotation: Favors and Rudy have that covered. That just might make someone like Millsap preferable over Kanter - unless Enes shows he has range. It likely comes down to price: is anyone else willing to pay an exorbitant amount for Kanter or can the Jazz keep him for $10M?
If I was him, I would be dreaming of the day I could return to Utah. Warm weather and winning is overrated.

Yup I agree. That Bill & Jalen podcast gave me this idea yesterday as well.
- Favors/Millsap/Gobert trio is a match made in heaven IMO.
- Millsap is the perfect stretch 4 in Quin's system.
- Shot 36% from 3's last year and is improving.
- Great work ethic
- Gobert will grab all the rebounds / blocks anyway.
Caveat: If we lucked out and get Karl Towns then goodbye Millsap.
Humidity in Atlanta is horrible. And winning? Atlanta limped into the playoffs with a 38-44 record. Not exactly a contender.
Millsap is definitely preferable over Kanter, but he will also cost more.
If Kanter doesn't prove himself this year, it would be awesome to get Sap, or draft a super athletic tweener type player (Can Chris Walker mature and prove himself this year?).
I'd take Millsap $12m per over $9 for Kanter anyway.
