With Cade Cunningham returning to the Pistons next year, it makes sense to wonder about Killian Hayes’ future and his role. A trade remains a plausible option in Detroit, which is why Bleacher Report imagined an exchange to revive it… for a superstar.
This season could well mark a small turning point in the career of Killian Hayes. The latter is still trying to find his place with the Pistons, where he showed great things last year, although with a lack of regularity. The problem is that Cade Cunningham is coming back from injury, which means Hayes could have fewer minutes. For some, a trade is therefore an attractive option.
Killian Hayes to the West?
Bleacher Report has precisely looked into the subject, even if the Frenchman is not the main target. We are talking here about Zion Williamson, who may be living his last season with the Pelicans. In the event of disappointing performances, or injuries, his trade and his departure could therefore be acquired. Here is the detail of this exchange offered to 5 players between New Orleans and Detroit.
Bleacher Report’s trade idea:
Pistons receive:
Zion Williamson
Kira Lewis Jr.⁰⁰Pelicans receive:
Bojan Bogdanović
James Wiseman
Killian Hayes
2026 1st-round pick (top-3 protected)

On the start, Killian Hayes close to a cador in the West!
Trade idea via Bleacher Report:
Pistons receive: Zion Williamson. Kira Lewis Jr.
Pelicans receive: Bojan Bogdanovic, James Wiseman, Killian Hayes, 2026 first round (top 3 protected), 2028 first round
It doesn’t seem like much for a player like Zion, at least when he’s at his best (remember he was All-Star this season). It will take much more to convince the Pels, especially since David Griffin is not known to be tender during negotiations…
this might be the worst trade I’ve ever seen

This may be the worst trade I’ve seen
I’d rather Zion play 15 games a year for the next 5 years than take this

Killian Hayes to the Pelicans? It shouldn’t happen with such a trade, especially when you see the reaction of the fans. Zion Williamson remains a talented player, although he will have to reassure about his state of health. It will take much more to convince New Orleans to give up on him…
