## Resource

The Detroit Pistons’ quiet offseason might be hiding a master plan. After last year’s surprise 60-win run, they’ve avoided flashy moves but quietly added key shooters like Isaiah Joe and John Collins to boost spacing. While Jalen Duren’s max contract talks drag on, president Trajan Langdon’s cautious approach—protecting future assets and avoiding rash trades—is paying off. This low-key strategy could make them a sleeper contender when the season starts. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
