Why The Detroit Pistons Do The Deal
If the Pistons draft Wembanyama, there is a high probability that they will not do this deal.
The team will have enough big men as it is. Despite his inexperience, Jalen Duren has displayed the type of potential that the Pistons are likely to look at him as a long-term starter as a rookie.
Without acquiring Davis, they will be faced with a dilemma if they draft Wembanyama in the first round. However, let us take a look at what would happen if this team drafted a wing.
There is a possibility that the Pistons will value Davis’ interior presence over Bogdanovic’s floor spacing if they walk away from this summer with, say, Brandon Miller.
This would be a bold move on the part of the organization. In normal circumstances, teams who are performing so poorly do not make big, win-now swings to get back on track.

In the same way, the Pistons would have been able to acquire enough talent through the draft to justify such a move.
Is it possible for the Lakers to justify moving Davis to another team?
