A few days before the start of the new season, Jalen Duren and the Detroit Pistons remain unresolved about his basketball future.
The center recently rejected a renewal offer of five years and $200 million, demanding a maximum of $287 million.
However, the Pistons have stood firm and will not offer him any more money, which led the player to skip the franchise’s Media Day.
As a possible bargaining piece, rumors have surfaced of a potential trade to the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for Myles Turner, Kevin Porter Jr., and future Draft picks.
And today, journalist Marc J. Spears added the Washington Wizards to the equation.
The capital club has emerged as the new destination in exchange for Alex Sarr, Khris Middleton and future Draft picks.
The deal would be sealed through a sign and trade, either with Duren signing for the $200 million to be immediately traded, or through the qualifying offer (around $10 million).
