Paul George Trade Fallout for Pistons | Detroit Pistons News

The NBA offseason just got wilder as the Celtics shipped Jaylen Brown to the Sixers for Paul George and picks — a move that could backfire for Boston and open the door for Philly to become a serious Eastern Conference threat. For Detroit, the situation is messy: George, 36, is on a $54M contract with injury history and a player option next year — not exactly a bargain. Rumors swirl that George might be traded again, and if Jalen Duren is still in play for Boston, Detroit could be caught in the crossfire. A sign-and-trade involving George might seem tempting for Cade Cunningham, but it’d likely cost Detroit future assets and make them weaker — so maybe they should just stay out of this mess.
