Making the Case: Detroit Pistons
Jerami Grant does not fit the timeline of the Detroit Pistons’ young pieces like Cade Cunningham. The ultimate benefit is moving Grant in the final year of his deal before he can leave in free agency.
When looking at the return, it is something that could fit into the future plan for Detroit as they build around Cunningham and Saddiq Bey leading the way.
Talen Horton-Tucker could work into the plan moving forward, while Kendrick Nunn is a potential salary dump for the franchise. A trade of this nature would also benefit Detroit because they will get first-round picks.
Taking on future draft assets and capitalizing on trade value of veterans is what a rebuilding team should be looking for rather than keeping around veterans who are not part of the future.

Grant has taken his offensive game to the next level, which has created plenty of value for the Detroit Pistons. It would benefit the front office to take advantage of this before he is able to leave for nothing.
