Harrison Barnes is currently having a career season averaging 17/8/3 with shooting spits of 52/41/80. He is on an attractive contract set to make less than 40M in the final 2 years. Is he overpaid? Maybe, but good stretch 4s are always overpaid unless you are Robert Covington who somehow always manages to sell himself short.
Detroit is not in a position to win any time soon and they are tanking to eventually draft hometown hero Emoni Bates, if they can get a an asset out of Jeremi Grant they should do it. He doesn't fit their timeline anyways.
I will say again Boston has a 28M trade exception, it would be dumb to not take advantage of that this season because a chunk of it is going to expire by next season.
