This kid has been so consistent for the Detroit Pistons. Is it crazy for me to think he's going to end up as an all star or on the all defensive team? At his age he's got some pretty high IQ and I can for sure see him being a great duo with Cade or any other guard in the future. I hope the Pistons do a good job developing him. The kid will be a monster in the next 3-5 years.

All-star is a pretty high bar to clear. Plenty of very good players never make it. There's a tier of bigs for the last 5 years or so: Valanciunas, Adams, Nurkic pre-injuries, Turner, Looney who are all really solid starting big men but don't see a chance of making allstar, and I think it's more likely Duren ends up in the next iteration of that tier.
