Pistons fans may be shocked at Jalen Duren's next contract

If you use logic and math, then the Detroit Pistons will likely be paying Jalen Duren somewhere in the range of $125 million over five seasons on his next contract.

The extensions for Duren and Jaden Ivey have been the subject of much debate, the kind that always surrounds second contracts for players who have not yet established themselves as stars.

For guys like Paolo Banchero and Jalen Williams, the answer was easy: You give them max contracts as soon as possible and walk away feeling good about it, as these players have already shown star qualities, and in the case of Williams, won a title.
