The Jerami Grant trade is a no-brainer for Portland, writes RohanNadkarni. But how did Detroit do in this deal? 🤔
Grant should thrive playing off-ball from Lillard. He shot 36.2% on catch-and-shoot threes last season, already enough to keep a defense honest, and Dame should get him some even better looks moving forward. For now, Grant is signed only through 2023 for nearly $21 million, but after last season’s teardown, the Blazers have the flexibility to sign him on a deal that should both go through Grant’s prime and not muck up their cap sheet.
. Still, he’s a proven player who already has once succeeded playing off a ball-dominant star. With the Blazers needing some two-way wings and still having space to maneuver for more talent, this deal was a layup.The return for Grant feels a little underwhelming for Detroit. At the same time, he was on an expiring deal and the Pistons avoided taking back any long-term salary with this move.
Ultimately, the Pistons’ main concern is making sure they put together the right nucleus around a budding star in Cunningham. Grant didn’t make too much sense for that long-term plan, and now Detroit can be a bit more malleable in how it structures its current rebuild.
