When the Detroit Pistons dropped to the 5th pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, it opened up a lot of possibilities for the offseason.
It’s been reported that the Pistons will “aggressively” pursue trades for the pick this summer, seeking a more proven player to join their already very-young core.
The Pistons also own the 31st pick in the draft, which could also be used in a trade, and we could see one or both of the picks moved if the right deal presents itself. That could mean trading a package based around picks for a player, or potentially trying to move up (or down) in the draft in search of a better prospect or more assets.
