Redick, Tommy Alter and his guest, Chicago Bulls wing Alex Caruso, were asked by a listener on “The Old Man and the Three” podcast: “Which team with a young core are you most excited to see, based off this summer, going into next year?” Redick chose the Pistons. “Obviously Cade, but Saddiq Bey, Jaden Ivey looked great in summer league before he got hurt, and Isaiah Stewart I’m a big fan of. I think he’s a guy that stars in his role. … Troy Weaver has just done an outstanding job, and I don’t know if it’s next year that they take an Oklahoma City Thunder leap, where all of the sudden they’re a playoff team and then the following season a contender. But I’m excited to see them play over the next two or three years, cause I think, in two or three years they will be one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference.” “That’s a big statement,” Caruso said. “To me, that’s dependent on does Cade become — I’m not saying he’s gonna be Luka (Doncic) — but if he becomes a true No. 1 franchise-level player,” Redick said.
