Pistons have interest in Hardaway Jr.
If you're looking for any clues regarding potential draft-night trades, here's one: the Detroit Pistons are said to have interest in trading for Tim Hardaway Jr. and have tried to engage the Knicks on a deal, per league sources.
Detroit may be looking to move guard Brandon Jennings because the organization traded for fellow guard Reggie Jackson last season. Jackson will be a restricted free agent this summer.
Jennings is entering the final year of his contract and will make $8.3 million next season. In a Jennings-for-Hardaway Jr. swap, the Knicks would likely have to use their trade exception and adjust their outgoing assets to make the deal work.
It's unknown if the Knicks would want to take Jennings' salary out without further enticement. It's also worth noting that former NBA star Tim Hardaway Sr., Hardaway Jr.'s father, is an assistant coach with the Pistons.

While many ppl have repeated that we are fine at SG, it appears that SVG is not too happy with the 2guard position as he is looking at trading for Hardaway Jr. I wonder if he is planning to dangle Meeks or KCP for a SF because Im not sure why he'd be chasing Hardway Jr otherwise.
With Austin Rivers looking a lot better under his father, perhaps the thought is the same thing could happen with THJ?
Honeslty, Id be fine if we drafted Booker if Winslow is off the board, shipped KCP off for a SF and found a way to acquire THJ. I think we'd be a lot better off at the wing positions.
