SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -Paul Millsap is staying with the Utah Jazz.
The Jazz on Friday matched the Portland Trail Blazers’ $32 million offer for the restricted free agent, keeping Millsap in Utah with a new four-year deal.
Portland frontloaded the offer with a guarantee of $10.3 million up front and the Jazz were willing to pay up to keep Millsap, a second-round surprise in the 2006 draft.
Utah had seven days to match the offer and made the division rival Trail Blazers wait the full week before Friday’s announcement.
