Pistons Lock Down Duren | NBA News

The Pistons are doubling down on keeping Jalen Duren, offering him their best possible contract and pledging to match any offer sheet — shutting down rumors of sign-and-trade talks with teams like the Kings and Lakers. At just 22, Duren was a cornerstone of Detroit’s top Eastern Conference finish last season, earning All-Star and All-NBA Third Team honors with 19.5 points and 10.5 rebounds per game. But his playoff struggles — particularly scoring below double figures and inconsistent inside shooting — raised concerns. Still, the front office believes in his growth potential and is committed to building around him in Detroit.
