Would this trade make sense for the Detroit Pistons?
The benefit is clear for the Detroit Pistons. They would get the best player in the trade while moving some pieces to create some cap space. Olynyk and Jackson are veteran players who do not fit into the plan for the Pistons. This means that they would be better off as trade pieces in the deal as the return.
Saddiq Bey and Isaiah Stewart were selected as All-Rookie players and gave the franchise some direction.
After the selection of Cunningham, there is a clear path to rebuilding. Hield might not be a player that comes and completely changes the culture in Detroit, but he is a veteran who can stick around for a few years to be a bit of a mentor.
Aside from this, Hield is one of the better three-point shooters in the game and brings a lot on the floor. That would be quite helpful to have alongside Cade Cunningham.
