Seth Curry finally ended his injury issues during the 18/19 season as he found a regular role in Portland's rotation. The 28-year-old made 74 regular season appearances, and his accuracy from beyond the arc (45%) was the third best in the NBA.

Curry has an upcoming player option on the final year of his contract, and James L. Edwards III of The Athletic is reporting that the former Sacramento man is a prime target for the Pistons:

The Pistons, who will be in the market come July 1 to sign a backup point guard and bolster their 3-point shooting, have Curry on their target list. When examining Curry’s potential as a point guard and primary creator, he was effective during the regular season in that regard. Per Synergy, Curry’s most-used play type was as a pick-and-roll ball-handler, and he netted an “excellent” 1.021 points per possession. Curry’s ability to shoot the ball from all over is a skill Detroit lacks in its current construct, and he’s also a little bit better of a finisher around the rim than most give him credit for.

Curry's ability to play at both guard positions is likely to appeal to the Pistons, and a two-year deal worth around $6 million should be enough to secure his signature.
