Detroit Pistons Receive: G Malik Beasley, F Jarred Vanderbilt, 2022 First Round Pick
Minnesota Timberwolves Receive: F Jerami Grant
In this NBA trade scenario, the Detroit Pistons would be making the choice to move on from Jerami Grant by sending him to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
In exchange for Grant, the Pistons would receive Malik Beasley, Jarred Vanderbilt, and a 2022 first-round pick. It wouldn’t be a massive haul for Detroit, but again, Grant is entering the final year of his contract in 2022-23, and that should reflect on his trade value.
Given the likely expectations Grant holds for his next contract, it may cut down on the number of teams that are interested in pursuing a trade for him.
If the Timberwolves are willing to hand him a significant extension, they could be an intriguing potential suitor. He would join Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns as they look to continue to emerge as a perennial playoff contender.
