Kyle Kuzma: Possible but unlikely

Kuzma's name has been mentioned in speculation involving the Pistons, but do they have what Washington wants?

The Wizards are reportedly looking for two first-round picks for Kuzma, which would rule the Pistons out unless they make additional deals.

The market for Kuzma could be robust, as his contract declines over the next three seasons, making him a good value considering his age and production. He'll only be making $19 million in the 2026-27 season, which will be a bargain for a guy who scores 20+ points per game.

Given his fit and connections to Detroit, I wouldn't completely rule it out, but the cost and competition will likely keep Detroit from getting Kyle Kuzma.
