About this episode

Aaron Johnson and Jasper Apollonia break down the latest report from Marc Stein that Jalen Duren is increasingly likely to accept the qualifying offer and return to the Detroit Pistons next season. The guys discuss how the Pistons and Duren got to this point, what accepting the qualifying offer would mean for both sides, the risks and benefits of Duren betting on himself, and whether they actually believe Duren will take the qualifying offer or eventually agree to a long-term extension with Detroit.
