Pistons genius contract structure hints at Detroit's plan

When Duncan Robinson signed a 3 year/$48 million contract with the Detroit Pistons it looked like an overpay and a bit of a gamble, as Robinson is 31 years old and who knows what he’ll look like in three years. But when you look at the full details of the contract, it’s an obvious slam dunk for the Pistons that may hint at their future plans.

There were writers who slammed the Pistons for this deal, calling it an overpay that they already regret (no), but Detroit essentially signed a one-year deal with Robinson since years two and three are not fully guaranteed.
