Bigs who can shoot aren’t as rare as they used to be, but they don’t exactly grow on trees nowadays, either.
That’s pretty close to Porziņģis money, for reference. Personally, I don’t think I would want to pay either one of them that much.
Give me Myles of KP just because of health. Turner had some amazing defensive flashes in the finals, but I think you could make an argument that Obie Toppin was Indy's best big because Myles was so ridiculously bad on the offensive end. And while it's a little silly to pick on the Finals winner, OKC could have used Chet on the perimeter more as Turner could not stay in front him. Maybe the Thunder are a horrible matchup for him, but:
Myles Turner's NBA Finals stats include averages of 10.6 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks per game. He has a 50.3% true shooting percentage, a 37.7% field goal percentage, and a 21.4% three-point percentage
