2. Myles Turner

Despite interest for the better part of the past two years, the Pacers still haven’t moved Myles Turner, and with all the extra draft capital from the Rudy Gobert trade, the Jazz should take advantage and add a layer of offense at the center position that they’ve not had for a decade. With his shot blocking and three point shooting abilities, he’d give this offense yet another layer, and even if his defensive abilities aren’t at the level of a three-time Defensive Player of the Year, he’s good enough in that role for this team to still be effective at that end of the floor.

At this point, it’s hard to tell exactly what Indiana wants for Turner, but if Utah can use picks and a young player or two (Walker Kessler, Malik Beasley etc) to pry him away from the Pacers, but he’d make the perfect pairing to the offensive abilities this team already has. The Jazz sent a clear message when it was Gobert they traded instead of Mitchell, looking to upgrade their offense, and with that in mind, Turner, with a combination with one of the other players on this list would make this team very dangerous, and someone is going to step up and finally make a move for Turner, so why not Utah?
