## Resource

The Detroit Pistons made one of the biggest moves of NBA free agency by signing John Collins to a 3-year, $51 million contract. What does Collins bring to Detroit, how does he fit alongside Cade Cunningham, Ausar Thompson and Jalen Duren, and what does this mean for the Pistons' plans moving forward? We also break down the Los Angeles Lakers' trade for Walker Kessler and discuss why that move could have a major impact on Jalen Duren's market. With one of Duren's rumored suitors landing their center, what does it mean for his value and the Pistons' leverage? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
