Report: Paul Millsap to Decide Between Hawks, Magic

Paul MIllsap is opting out of his contract to become a free agent

Unrestricted free agent Paul Millsap has already narrowed down his choices to two teams, according to TNT’s David Aldridge.

Millsap, an All-Star power forward in each of the last two seasons for the Atlanta Hawks, will choose between his recent team and the Orlando Magic.

Both teams have the necessary space to offer Millsap a near-max or max contract, according to HoopsHype.

Millsap tallied 16.7 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.8 steals per game last season, helping the Hawks reach the Eastern Conference Finals. Millsap also posted a 99.2 defensive clip—the ninth-best mark in the league, per Basketball-Reference.com.

The 30-year-old is a prototypical stretch-4 due to his versatility on both ends of the floor. Millsap was a threat near the rim, and he knocked down 35.7 percent of his attempts from three-point range.
