The Pistons are discussing the next step with Slam Dunk brother Blake Griffin. Griffin will continue to be sidelined until no solution is reached on future plans.
Griffin missed Monday’s game against the Pelicans. Sources allege that the Pistons are seeking to send Griffin away through a deal, and buying out the contract is also one of the options. The general manager of the Pistons team said: “After many exchanges with Griffin’s agent, we have reached a consensus and will work hard to find a solution to maximize the interests of both parties. We respect Griffin’s contribution and dedication to the Pistons. Work hard and will make every effort to get positive results for everyone.”
Griffin also said in a statement: “Thank you very much for the Pistons’ desire to understand that I want to achieve some goals in my career, and thank them for their willingness to work with me to achieve the best future.” But the Pistons’ search for Griffin will be a great deal. Challenge, his contract will expire in the summer of 2022, his annual salary this season is 36.8 million US dollars, 2021-22 season has a player option worth 38.95 million US dollars. Griffin said that thinking of playing for a team with a chance to win, the team must reach a deal before the trade deadline (March 25).
