Carlos Boozer and Mehmet Okur don’t opt out

Carlos Boozer will remain with the Jazz next season, according to the Associated Press (via Sports Illustrated). He will be paid $12.7 million.

This is good news for the Pistons from my perspective. I didn’t want Boozer, and this should help their chances of getting Mehmet Okur and/or Paul Millsap. (Wouldn’t that be an excellent starting power forward/center combo next year?).

UPDATE: Mehmet Okur isn’t opting out, either.

Hello, Paul Millsap.
