Wiseman, who refused 30 million in the offseason and wanted 60 million, may only have to get a base

As the star of the 2020 list, Wiseman attracted much attention when he first entered the league, and he was also given high hopes by the team management for the Warriors, who are extremely lacking in interior depth. However, the talented big man has struggled to fit into the Warriors' system, and his growth rate has struggled to meet expectations. Ironically, in the season when Wiseman was out injured, the Warriors returned to the Finals and eventually won the championship. What's worse is that as a high-pick player, I can't see his progress and upward momentum at all, and he often plays *** Finally, after more than two seasons with the Warriors, the Warriors management tearfully sold him.

After coming to the Pistons, Wiseman has indeed improved his status and tactical role in the team, and his average playing time has increased to 25In 2 minutes, the average data per game also rose to 127 points 81 rebound 08 blocks and a shooting percentage of 531%。Looking at the data alone, it seems to be not bad, but everyone who watched the game knows that Wiseman is still that smart, and the plus/minus of the game is still at the bottom of the team. Despite this, Pistons management still gave Wiseman patience and was interested in signing Wiseman early this offseason, offering a three-year, $30 million extension**. However, the ** was quickly rejected by Wiseman's team, who believed that Wiseman's talent and potential deserved a bigger contract and wanted to get a four-year, $60 million contract.

Due to the difference in the length of the contract extension and salary, Wiseman's contract extension was also put on hold. With the addition of head coach Monty, Wiseman once again tasted the taste of being left out in the cold. In the crazy Pistons team this season, Monty hid Wiseman for many consecutive games in the early part of the season, leaving him on the cold bench. As the season progressed, Wiseman's chances were few and far between. So far this season, Wiseman has only made 10 appearances, averaging 11 per game1 minute, get 54 points 32 rebounds and shot 649%, a number of data set a new career low. While Wiseman has been able to provide consistent output on the offensive end, the defensive end has been disastrous, with neither Wiseman improving significantly under Kerr nor Monty. Even if it's only 11 this seasonIn 1 minute of playing time, he can play an outrageous -131. Net efficiency. Maybe Monty used him just to put it on a better show!

And although the current Pistons team belongs to the rebuilding period, its forward talent seems to be very crowded, Duren and Stewart have an absolute position in the team, firmly occupying the starting position, and Bagley, who is also a parallel trade list, is also more favored by Monty. This also makes Wiseman's current position in the team very awkward, and the living space is extremely limited. And judging from Wiseman's overall performance so far, there is no room for improvement and characteristics in him. Moreover, Wiseman is not a player with a high ball IQ who plays positively, and is even prone to negative emotions, which is also a hidden danger for the team's locker room.

Perhaps rejecting an early contract extension from the Pistons was the worst decision of Wiseman's career, and it also cast a shadow over his future. Judging from Wiseman's current strength and development, at the end of this season, maybe only a base salary contract awaits him, and there may even be no one to want!
