Pistons make Jalen Duren extension mistake in latest projections

The Detroit Pistons have had a relatively quiet offseason, so most of the discussion has revolved around possible extensions for Jaden Ivey and Jalen Duren. Many believe Duren is the more likely of the two to get an extension, but one recent prediction is higher than I expect the Pistons to go.

Bleacher Report predicted that Duren would get 5 years/$140 million, which would be near the ceiling of what I expect the Pistons to offer their young center.

I am on the record several times as saying Detroit may as well cut a deal with Duren now if the price is right, but that’s where the debate starts.
