Would You Trade Ausar Thompson for Trey Murphy? + Isaiah Stewart's Future

On this episode of 3 Championship Drive, Lance Caporossi examines a critical question facing the Detroit Pistons: are fans willing to take bigger risks to transform the team from a playoff contender into a legitimate championship contender? Lance dives into a potential Trey Murphy trade and asks whether Pistons fans would be willing to part ways with Ausar Thompson to acquire one of the NBA's premier young two-way wings. Is Murphy the missing piece Detroit needs, or would moving on from Ausar be too steep a price to pay? The conversation also turns to Isaiah Stewart and his future with the franchise. Can Stewart be a reliable contributor on a deep playoff run, or could the Pistons explore trading him as they continue reshaping the roster around Cade Cunningham? Plus, with the 21st pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, Lance explains why he's not sold on Koa Peat as a fit for Detroit and discusses the concerns that could make the Pistons look elsewhere on draft night.
