8. Paul Millsap | Atlanta Hawks
Type: Unrestricted
2014-15 Season Stats: 16.7 points, 7.8 rebounds
Potential Landing Spots: Boston Celtics, Milwaukee Bucks, Atlanta Hawks, New York Knicks
For some reason, I feel like the Celtics are going to land a big name free agent. And after looking at the pool of them, I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s going to be Paul Millsap, despite Atlanta’s desire to re-sign the all-star.
If the Celtics can’t snag Kevin Love, the next best thing has to be considered to be Millsap. He fits right in with what Brad Stevens is building in Boston. It would be a huge blow to the Hawks, but also a huge get for the Celtics.
Where he signs: Boston Celtics
Next: 7. Jimmy Butler
