The Pistons’ best chance at making a big splash in the trade market seems to be Lauri Markannen. He’s been rumored as a Pistons trade target for years and fits the team perfectly on the depth chart. After a strong EuroBasket showing, there is even more momentum for Markkanen to get traded from the Jazz.
But if the Pistons play their cards right, they can add more than one valuable contributor in a potential trade with Utah. Georges Niang recently joined the Jazz roster, and he could be a nice piece for the Pistons to add as a trade throwaway.
