5 steps to drawing a major free agent to the Detroit Pistons
The Pistons, like all Detroit teams, are in the middle of a rebuild. Detroit Basketball seems to be in the lead, and I think they are most likely to win a championship first. Currently, they lack the superstar needed to push them over the top. Hopefully, the Detroit Pistons find one in the 2021 NBA Draft, but adding another excellent player certainly won’t hurt.
Convincing a superstar free agent to join a new team is no easy task, especially when you have to consider that Detroit is a small market with a less-than-flattering reputation. Luckily, the building blocks are already in place. Blake Griffin’s contract stands in the way for another season, so Detroit will probably have to wait before making their big move.

It won’t be easy, but the Detroit Pistons are on the right track. There are still five steps the Pistons will have to take, but the chances of it happening are better than one might think.
Detroit Pistons: Jerami Grant will represent Detroit on Team USA
Jerami Grant will not be the best player on a championship team. He’s a very good player and teammate, but he is not the star Detroit needs. He could be an excellent complementary piece, though. He is also spending this summer in Tokyo with some of the best players in the league.
If Grant establishes himself as one of the more enjoyable players on the Olympic roster, stars will try to entice him to join their team. He could very well move on when his relatively shorter contract is up, but the Olympics offer Detriot another way to show it is a desirable team to join.
The Pistons, Knicks, Hornets, and Timberwolves all have two players on the Select Team, who will be practicing with the National Team. Of those players, Obi Toppin has underperformed, the Hornets’ front office is a joke, and frankly, no one wants to play in Minnesota. Isaiah Stewart and Saddiq Bey, alongside Grant, will get to prove to the other Olympians that Detroit is the place to be.
Now that the Detroit Pistons have a PR team of players representing them to the league, they just need to nail the NGA Draft.
