Pistons offseason spotlight: Duren’s unresolved deal, Ausar’s extension and a shooting-first plan

Detroit’s offseason talk centers on Jalen Duren’s unresolved deal, while the team says it will keep him central if he returns. The Pistons also see Ausar Thompson as a long-term pillar after his extension, even if it tightens future spending. Beyond that, the front office is leaning toward spacing, shooting and value-based moves, with playoff readiness seen as the real measuring stick.
