#1 Derrick Favors
While there is no doubting the individual qualities of both Rudy Gobert and Derrick Favors, the duo simply don't fit together on the same team.
Gobert and Favors play the same position, offer similar skill sets, and both take up a considerable amount of the team's salary cap. This makes it hard to envision a Jazz future with both players, and Favors is the man likely to make way.
In Gobert, the Jazz has the most dominant defensive force in the NBA, and the team can't afford to lose him during his peak years. Meanwhile, Utah can save $16.9 million in salary for the 19-20 season by waiving Favors before July 5th - an option that appears too good to refuse.
Ultimately, Favors has been a tremendous servant to the Jazz organization, but it is finally time to end the Gobert/Favors era.
