Lakers will get Jordan and we will get picks for a few years, exactly what a rebuilding team needs
Whats up with detroit fans accepting mediocrity here
The picks restock a draft cupboard that was bare after Weaver dealt four second-rounders, along with Luke Kennard, during the 2020 NBA draft to acquire Saddiq Bey with the 19th pick. The Pistons have traded their own second-round picks through 2026, and owe a heavily protected first-round pick to Oklahoma City.
Before the deal, Detroit had 16 guaranteed contracts and needed to clear one roster spot with training camp less than a month away. After a buyout of Jordan, they'll have one opening, with 14 players on the roster
Opens roster spots and gets draft talent for next few years in which we have none from previous trades. Hot mess.. Getting a core built for them to walk in free agency is what its sadly gonna be. Hopefully they gel and stick together
