In this episode of the Wine and Gold Talk podcast, host Ethan Sands and Detroit Free Press reporter Omari Sankofa II examine whether the Cavs and Pistons are the Eastern Conference’s most slept-on teams after both franchises made it to the conference semifinals this past season. Sands and Sankofa compare Donovan Mitchell and Cade Cunningham as players to build around and explore what separates their respective ceilings. They also dive into Jalen Duren’s unresolved contract situation and why the young Pistons center enters the season with significant pressure to prove he’s worth the hefty extension he’s seeking.
