In incredibly expected news, the Blake Griffin trade market appears nonexistent. Griffin, the veteran forward of the Detroit Pistons has been sitting out for weeks after the team and Griffin’s reps decided it’d be best for both parties if they amicably separated.
For Blake, it’s about playing competitive ball on a contending team. For the Pistons, it’s about rebuilding, and opening up playing time and possessions for its younger players. With three weeks to go until the trade deadline, it appears a buyout is the most likely resolution, per Shams Charania of The Athletic.
