Detroit Pistons Receive: F Nikola Jovic, F Hayward Highsmith, 2023 First-Round Pick Pick (Lottery Protected – MIA) 

Miami Heat Receive: F Saddiq Bey 

Some may be surprised to see Bey in a trade proposal. Shouldn’t the Pistons hold onto the promising 23-year-old? 

Perhaps. With that said, you must be out of the loop. recent rumours suggest that Bey may be available. 

It may be that the Pistons don’t love his fit alongside Cade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey. That pair projects to be the Pistons’ backcourt for a long time.

They’re both lead ball-handler types, so anyone who’s going to play with them ought to either be a floor spacer or a lob threat.
