Pistons forward Jerami Grant has been at the center of trade rumors since at least February, and that’s not likely to change.
“People are always calling for your best players,” Pistons GM Troy Weaver said, via Omari Sankofa II of the Detroit Free Press. “Absolutely anticipating that.”
Grant has repeatedly been linked to the Trail Blazers, and as recently as late last week. But there are certainly other teams expressing an interest. And more will be on the way with Thursday’s NBA Draft and the ensuing trade season rapidly approaching.
Grant, 28, is 6-foot-8 and 19.2 points and 4.1 rebounds in 47 games last season. He is due about $21 million in 2022-23, before entering free agency.
The Pistons own the No. 5 overall pick in the draft.
