Monster overpay sets dangerous precedent for the Pistons

The Sacramento Kings raised some eyebrows yesterday when it was reported they had signed forward Keegan Murray to a 5 year/$140 million contract extension that may have set the market for Jaden Ivey and Jalen Duren.

I mean, anytime you can lock up the 4th option on a mediocre team for nearly $30 million a year you have to do it. At least if you are the Kings. This seems like a wild overpay for a guy who took a step back last year and put up pedestrian numbers on a team with a losing record.

No one knows what the Kings are doing and they arguably have the strangest roster in the league after recently adding Russell Westbrook.
