The Detroit Pistons seem to be finding themselves again during the second round of the 2026 NBA Playoffs as they are off to a 2-0 lead over the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Two games aren’t enough to convince the front office that Cade Cunningham’s supporting cast is great as is. For the time being, Cunningham needs some notable upgrades, and Bleacher Report’s Grant Hughes pointed out two “prime targets” to improve the offensive side of the ball.

One From The Western Conference

GettyMINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA – APRIL 25: Ayo Dosunmu #13 of the Minnesota Timberwolves celebrates against the Denver Nuggets in the third quarter of Game Four of the First Round of the 2026 NBA Western Conference Playoffs at Target Center on April 25, 2026 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Timberwolves defeated the Nuggets 112-96.

The Pistons know Ayo Dosunmu well. The Minnesota Timberwolves guard spent pretty much all of his career with the Chicago Bulls.

As the Bulls entered blow-it-up mode back in February, Dosunmu was shipped out to Minnesota amid his contract year. In the regular season, Dosunmu averaged 14.4 points per game on 41.4% from three with the Timberwolves. The numbers improved to 18.2 points on 52.2% shooting from deep in the playoffs.

While some lingering lower-body concerns forced some missed action in the playoffs for Dosunmu, he’s been a strong presence for the Timberwolves. Minnesota will likely look to retain him, but Dosunmu is certainly a target worth looking at if the Timberwolves don’t lock him up.

The Eastern Conference Option

After spending four years on the New Orleans Pelicans, CJ McCollum ended up in a rebuilding situation with the Washington Wizards. The 34-year-old must’ve known he would get traded at some point in 2025-2026.

McCollum ended up on the Atlanta Hawks. The acquisition was met with a lot of criticism, since McCollum was the headliner in the deal for a multi-time All-Star in Trae Young. But the veteran played a solid role on a playoff contender.

With the Hawks, McCollum shot 35.7% from deep, while averaging 18.7 points. He also produced 4.1 assists and came down with 3.1 rebounds per game.

McCollum wouldn’t be a long-term option, but could help serve multiple backcourt positions as a starter or a reserve. Plus, he would bring 11 years of playoff experience to the table.
