According to NBA insider James L. Edwards III of The Athletic, the Detroit Pistons have no plans to trade Bojan Bogdanovic unless the front office gets an offer it can’t refuse.
The Pistons are 2-29 on the season. They have lost 28 games in a row.
“And everything I’ve heard and continue to hear is that there are no plans to trade Bogdanovic unless Detroit gets an offer it can’t refuse,” Edwards III wrote. “The Pistons want to be good and don’t want to trade good players, even if Bogdanovic’s role is reduced to a bench scorer next season.”
Bogdanovic is averaging 19.7 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.8 assists for the Pistons this season while shooting 45.6% from the field, 37.1% from beyond the arc and 75.5% from the free-throw line. The veteran is making $20 million.

Multiple playoff teams are interested in acquiring Bogdanovic from the Pistons, who haven’t won a game since October 28.
“At this point, this is all we have right now,” Bogdanovic told ESPN before the Pistons lost to the Boston Celtics last night. “So you gotta get one W and keep growing, even if it’s hard right now to find anything positive.”
The Pistons face the Toronto Raptors tomorrow. If they lose, they will have lost 29 consecutive games.

“We’re all human beings. We all know what’s going on and around the league, and what’s going on around our team,” Bogdanovic said. “Still, at the end of the day, if we don’t figure this out, who knows how many games we could lose in a row? So it’s on all of us to take ownership of what’s happening right now.”
