The NBA trade deadline is a time that helps teams make moves if they want to compete or if they are rebuilding. The Detroit Pistons and Minnesota Timberwolves continue to look for help to get moving in the right direction.
The Pistons seem to be a step ahead. Detroit might not be postseason contenders this season but they are looking to develop young talent — beginning with Cade Cunningham, who was taken with the first-overall pick in this year’s draft.
The Pistons hit the lottery and got a chance to draft the best prospect in the class. Cunningham will now join Saddiq Bey and Isaiah Stewart, who were both all-rookie selections last season. Killian Hayes also looks like a prospect who could take the next step this season.
As for the Timberwolves, there is not much to be excited about. They have been near the bottom of the Western Conference for years now. Despite adding some talent, Minnesota has been unable to build a winner. Karl-Anthony Towns remains in town while D’Angelo Russell has not been moved yet either.
