James Wiseman was first on Detroit’s draft board in 2020. Troy Weaver has long been a fan. Curious to see if this gets across the finish line. – 12:30 PM

Pistons and Warriors have discussed a deal, involving Bey and Wiseman, also hearing Moody and other stuff, sources say. Nothing imminent or close. – 12:30 PM

As I noted on Monday, the financial incentive for Warriors to trade Wiseman is overwhelming

Confirming @Jake Fischer’s report that the Pistons and Warriors are having discussions surrounding Saddiq Bey and James Wiseman. Sounds like it’s far from a done deal, however. – 12:29 PM

Warriors were high on Saddiq Bey during the pre-draft process in 2020 but obviously weren’t going to take him when they ended up with the No. 2 pick. – 12:26 PM

Saddiq Bey’s last 11 games (31.6 minutes per): 20.3 points, 6.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 44.4% overall, 42.3% from 3 (7.1 attempts), 88.5% at the line (4.7 attempts).
He’s snapping out of his early season slump, and then some. – 4:16 PM

TRADE RUMORS: The Athletic’s @Anthony Slater is reporting that trade activity has picked up & the Warriors are open to moving younger, out-of-rotation players. The players who fit that mold are James Wiseman + Moses Moody. Not necessarily likely, but possible. #dubnation – 4:27 PM

Do they try to break it? Or feed Wiseman? – 12:04 AM

A rare opportunity for garbage-time minutes. How many will Moody and Wiseman get?
Steve’s seen a lot of blown leads already so I’m guessing the final 5 – 11:48 PM

Casey on Bey’s hot streak: “With the second unit, he has a better opportunity to get that rhythm.”
Said he loves how Bey has played off the bench and “when we’re ready to compete in the playoffs” he believes that will be his best role. – 5:26 PM

More on this storyline
David Locke: This paragraph from @johnhollinger in @TheAthletic today is crazy. The Warriors save $131 million dollars if they trade James Wiseman -via Twitter @DLocke09 / February 7, 2023
The noise around the league the last couple of days is an increased willingness from the Warriors to engage in conversation and explore the idea of moving their younger, out-of-the-rotation players if a significant enough upgrade is offered. There’s a greater whiff of aggressiveness. If James Wiseman and Moses Moody weren’t providing any current on court value, could they be had for pennies on the dollar? But in recent days, as the conversations league-wide progressively turn more practical, the conceptual deals coming the Warriors’ direction have increased enough to believe something might actually materialize before the buzzer. -via The Athletic / February 7, 2023
Coach Steve Kerr pulled James Wiseman aside for a chat before the team’s afternoon ride to the airport for a flight to Oklahoma City. “I did, just because it’s hard as a young player to have to go through this,” Kerr said after practice. “And you need reps. And you haven’t been through the league for a long time, and you don’t always understand what’s happening.” -via Yahoo! Sports / January 30, 2023
Per league sources, the Pistons have been active in conversations, but it is not a guarantee that Bogdanovic, Burks or Saddiq Bey is moved by the deadline. Bogdanovic has garnered serious interest from the Knicks, Bucks and Lakers, per league sources. However, none of those three really has anything that would entice the Pistons to part ways with the 33-year-old forward who is having the best offensive season of his career. It feels like a third team would have to get involved for Detroit to get the type of return it would need to move its coveted trade chips before the deadline. -via The Athletic / February 9, 2023
On the latest edition of The Putback, SNY NBA Insider Ian Begley reported that the Denver Nuggets have “registered some interest” in trading for Cam Reddish. However, the Knicks and Detroit Pistons have “more recently” had talks about a potential Reddish deal. Begley has previously reported that the Knicks have expressed interest in Pistons wing Saddiq Bey, so perhaps a match could be found there. -via SportsNet New York / February 7, 2023
Even with all that said, I’ve gathered that it’s not a given that the Pistons part with Bey. At 23, he’s already a legit NBA player with room to improve. There certainly are reasons to hesitate when pondering any potential trades involving. -via The Athletic / February 6, 2023
