Pistons’ asking price for Bojan Bogdanovic revealed

The Pistons are not looking to trade Bojan Bogdanovic, unless some team matches their asking price which is rather steep.

Reportedly, Detroit wants an unprotected first-round pick and a good young player for the Croatian forward who is having a career year.

Multiple teams, among them the Lakers, Mavericks, Bucks and Rockets, are reportedly interested in acquiring the 33-year-old veteran.

The Pistons’ asking price for Bojan Bogdanovic is high — I’m of the understanding that, at this moment in time, they won’t part with him for anything less than an unprotected first and a good young player — because they don’t want to trade him. It would take an overpay for Detroit to part ways with Bogdanović.

Bogdanovic signed a two-year contract with the Pistons earlier this season. He is set to make $20 million and $19 million over the next two seasons.

This season Bogdanovic is averaging career-high 21.2 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 31.3 minutes per game.
