The Detroit Pistons are gearing up for an active free agency, looking to build on their 30-win improvement from the previous season that saw them return to the playoffs for the first time since 2019. Despite a first-round exit against the New York Knicks, the Pistons showed competitiveness, particularly against standout performances from Jalen Brunson.

With key free agents such as Tim Hardaway Jr. and Malik Beasley, the team is particularly eyeing Minnesota Timberwolves guard Nickeil Alexander-Walker as a potential signing. Alexander-Walker excelled during the playoffs but had a rough final game, finishing with zero points. His versatility could enhance the Pistons' bench strength.
