Why The Detroit Pistons Do The Deal
We know what Pistons fans are thinking. Really? Another guard?
For what it’s worth, the Pistons have plenty of backcourt talent. Their starting backcourt of Cade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey ought to define Pistons basketball for a long time.
Add in Killian Hayes, and it’s fair to question this decision.
With that said, Mitchell has been a more productive player than Hayes. He’s a better shooter, and a better defender. Those qualities make him a more suitable backup point guard.

Following this deal, the Pistons could move Hayes for a player at a position of need. Meanwhile, they’ll also have two new pick swaps to show for it – that’s a good return for a player of Bogdanovic’s age.
Should the Kings send out so much to land him?
