Pistons, Rodney Stuckey reportedly not close on new deal

Vince Ellis of the Detroit Free Press:

"To echo @deryNBA , #Pistons and Stuckey are not close on a deal."

Yesterday, the sides were reportedly talking, but it appears this deal won’t be wrapped up quickly like the contracts for Tayshaun Prince and Jonas Jerebko seemed to be. Stuckey’s actual dollar value is hardest to gauge. Based solely on his production so far, he’s probably worth in the $5-$6 millionish per year range roughly. But he’s still improving (if incrementally) and young. His agent is most assuredly making the case that he’s worth way more than that.
