The NBA trade deadline is a little over 24 hours away. Trade rumors are swirling, big names are on the block and somehow the rebuilding Detroit Pistons are being mentioned with most of them. You wanna ship out Aaron Gordon? The Pistons are listening. Ready to cut bait on upcoming free agent Victor Oladipo? He’s a Weaver kind of player. Not comfortable committing $100 million to John Collins or Jarrett Allen? Weaver is not so shy.
We didn’t give the new Pistons GM the nickname Troy Reaper for nothing. He’s traded or released every player he inherited except for poor Sekou Doumbouya, and I wouldn’t feel comfortable if I were him until a few hours past the deadline.
