Would he even play over Booker? The only bad thing about trading Kanter (not advocating this a reason to not trade Kanter) is that we wouldn't have any backups who can play center. Would kind of force our hand in going with a 3-man rotation of Gobert/Favors/Booker. If we wanted to play Illyasova we would be really small at times with him and Booker on the floor at the same time. IDK, I'd just rather play Booker tbh. I guess we would probably cut Booker next year though to save money and just have Illyasova be our 3rd big anyway, which sucks cuz I like Booker.
Jazz has to acquire a center to back Gobert. Backcourt defense is so terrible that the team cannot afford going for small game and only rely on Gobert's existence on court. Ersan is not necessarily small game but lacks size. It wouldn't be too bad with him and Favors or Gobert on the court. With Booker, well this is where the Jazz need that center.
