Episode Details

Jalen Duren’s restricted free agency continues to drag on as the Detroit Pistons and their young center have reportedly made only modest progress toward a new contract. In today’s episode, we break down why Duren’s market has become so limited, whether he could accept the qualifying offer and bet on himself, and why that path would carry significant risk. We also discuss reports that the Pistons continue to reject sign-and-trade scenarios and still view re-signing Duren as their top offseason priority. Plus, were the Los Angeles Lakers ever seriously interested in Duren? New reporting suggests Walker Kessler was their preferred center target from the beginning.
