The ideal power forward for the Detroit Pistons

The Detroit Pistons already have Ausar Thompson as the wing of the future and Jalen Duren as the center, so their real weakness is at power forward, where they will try to pigeonhole Isaiah Stewart.

I am a huge Stewart fan but believe his ultimate destiny may be as a small-ball center and super sub who plays both big spots as needed.

The ideal guy next to Thompson and Duren will be someone who can stretch the floor with 3-point shooting. Hopefully, Stewart will prove to be that guy, but he hasn’t yet. Defensively, the Detroit Pistons need more athleticism at the position, a guy who can protect the rim and someone who can occasionally slide over to the wing position if needed.

There is one player out there who fits this description very well, could be available and fits the timeline of the Detroit Pistons perfectly.
