Why The Detroit Pistons Do The Deal

 The Pistons may be in line to add a third lottery pick to their squad. They’ll still need players who complement those potential stars. 

In fact, that was seemingly their intention in acquiring Bogdanovic in the first place. To be certain, his floor spacing would have helped Cade Cunningham’s playmaking. 

Cunningham is gone. There’s no telling when he’ll be back. With that in mind, any hopes the Pistons had of taking a step forward this season ought to be dashed as well. 

They might as well go ahead and move Bogdanovic as a result. They’re absorbing a questionable contract here, but Fournier will be moveable if necessary.
