He doesn't fit Milwaukee's 4 out around Giannis.
I don't see the Celtics path to matching salaries unless they include Hayward (which would be very funny)
Heat already have Bam
Pacers already have one too many centers
Nets don't have a filler/Jordan is their franchise players' buddy
Raptors might be able to make the $ work, but again I don't think he fits how they want to play, and they'd have to move on from some guys who do in order to make the $ work.
Maybe some sort of Vucevic package from the Magic could work?
There's a lot of similar concerns out west. I don't think he'd get a very good return unless the Jazz were willing to take salary back. He's a hard player to fit into another team in terms of salary matching and play style.
Dallas might be a good fit. He can fill that Chandler role for Carlisle on both ends and they have the Hardaway expiring (not sure what else they could include to entice the Jazz though). He would also be a perfect hit in Stotts' defense that has the center drop back, maybe something involving Nurkic.
