Detroit want to check Jalen Duren's weight every month under his new contract, with bonuses tied to the result, The Athletic reports.
The club's proposal would run for a calendar year. Duren, 22, and his representatives were surprised by the condition, according to the report.
The Athletic says the Pistons concluded that Duren's weight played a part in the loss to Cleveland in Game 7 of the second-round playoff series. Sources in the league told the outlet the club wanted the centre to lose weight straight after that series.
