The Pistons shocked the NBA world when they completed a blockbuster trade for Blake Griffin back in 2018, and the All-Star's arrival signaled that they were going 'all-in' on the current roster.

However, despite a stellar individual season from Griffin, the Pistons suffered a 4-0 first-round series defeat to the Bucks.

Due to Detroit's failure to compete, Zach Buckley of Bleacher Report has suggested that Griffin could be offloaded to the Heat:

If Miami Heat president Pat Riley sniffs a hint of desperation from the Motor City, he’ll pounce to land one of his coveted white whales. Naturally, he’ll also try to do so at a discount. As good as Griffin looked this season, he’ll find himself on more than a few MVP ballots - he’s still wildly expensive and has a frightening injury history.

If the Pistons opt for a rebuild this summer, a Griffin trade is likely, however, if management keep faith in the current roster, the All-Star will stick around for at least one more season.
