EXTENSION: Gobert signs 5yr/$205M w/ UTA | DAL "significant interest" if available

Just so we're clear here is Kamm's top 8 guys:

"If specifically looking at impact on winning I personally (based on impact stats) think Giannis, LeBron, Kawhi, Jokic, and Luka are the clear top 5 (not in that order). I think Harden, Curry, and Gobert are probably the next three to round out the top 8.

But statistically (taking out the romance of glossy fan impressions and opinions) Gobert is unquestionably at least top 15.

If I were building a team, as unglamorous as it would be, I would take Gobert over Davis, Durant, Embiid, Lillard, Butler, Tatum, Paul, Irving, Murray, etc., and most certainly over Mitchell (I think Donovan is VASTLY overrated)."


So I expect the Jazz to be Kamm's favorites in the next two rounds if they do get past the Clippers. Suns do not have a top 10 guy and looks like no one in East made the list unless the injured Nets get healthy in a hurry.
