Paul Millsap Receives Matching Offers From Hawks And Magic

It was reported that Millsap met with the Magic at 12:01 am, aka at the start of free agency. And there, he was offered a four-year deal, worth $80 million. On the other hand, the Hawks have proposed the same maximum contract, according to ESPN’s sources. At the moment, it is unclear in which direction he will go, but a decision could come as soon as today.

Originally drafted with the 47th pick in 2006, he was underutilized in Utah. And after seven seasons with the Jazz, he signed a two-year deal with the Hawks, worth $19 million. And in Atlanta, he flourished under Mike Budenholzer’s upbeat system.
