According to Pistons reporter James L. Edwards III, the Pistons are evaluating head coach Monty's future, and Pistons owner Tom Golls has conveyed to new basketball operations president Trajan Langdon that he is willing to pay Monty $60 million for the remainder of his contract if he feels that Monty is not a good fit to coach the team.

After Monty was fired by the Suns last summer, he agreed a six-year, $78.5 million super-coaching contract with the Pistons, with an average annual salary of more than $13 million, and the contract amount could be up to $100 million over eight years, with team options for years 7 and 8.

In the 2023-24 season, under Monty's coaching, the Pistons are still the worst team in the league, with 14 wins and 68 losses, ranking first in the East and first in the league; Obviously, the Pistons owner did not hesitate to spend money to hire a famous coach to no avail, and what is even more heartbreaking is that the Pistons still have the worst record in the league, but they only drew the No. 5 pick at the lottery ceremony, and the Hawks were upset and drew the top pick.

If Monty is really fired by the Pistons, he will receive $60 million from the Pistons in the next six years and more than $13 million from the Suns in the next two years; So far in his coaching career, Monty has coached the Pelicans, Suns and Pistons, with a regular season record of 381 wins and 404 losses, a winning rate of 48.5%; With a playoff record of 29 wins and 27 losses, a winning rate of 51.8%, he once led the Suns to a strong rise, but he did not save the Pistons with an annual salary of tens of millions.
