Even though the Detroit Pistons have consistently signaled that they are not going to make a splashy move at the trade deadline, that hasn’t stopped them from being connected to Michael Porter Jr. in trade rumors.
This is all speculation by people who see MPJ as an impact addition the Pistons could potentially make without the hefty price tag associated with guys like Lauri Markkanen and Trey Murphy III.
And in the case of Murphy III, he may not be available anyway, as the Pelicans have indicated that they are not listening to offers on him, though we know that can change.
