Detroit Pistons - 2025 Offseason Preview

Max Cap Room
$19.3 million
$8.8 million Room Mid-Level Exception

Potential Free Agents
​

  • Tim Hardaway Jr. ($24.3 million cap hold, Full Bird Rights, Unrestricted)

  • Paul Reed ($2.2 million cap hold, Full Bird Rights, Unrestricted)

  • Malik Beasley ($7.2 million cap hold, Non-Bird Rights, Unrestricted)

  • Dennis Schroder ($16.9 million cap hold, Early Bird Rights, Unrestricted)

  • Lindy Waters ($2.2 million cap hold, Full Bird Rights, Unrestricted)


Summary
The Pistons could have roughly $19 million in cap space, but retaining or re-signing any of their own potential free agents would cut into that. They also could end up operating over the cap.

​

The Pistons will have about $52 million below the luxury tax with 10 players under contract, which would likely be enough to re-sign their own key free agents while still having the $14.1 million Non-Taxpayer MLE and the $5.1 million Bi-Annual Exception to add talent, if they end up operating over the cap.
