Analysis: Pistons strengthen frontcourt depth with trade for Wiseman

Detroit — In the waning hours of the NBA's trade deadline, Pistons general manager Troy Weaver shook up the roster with a trade — his third consecutive deadline-day deal since taking over in 2020.

The Pistons (14-42) were fresh off a brutal 113-85 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers and with the second-worst record in the league, it appears that standing pat was not an option.

Detroit dealt third-year forward Saddiq Bey and Kevin Knox II to the Golden State Warriors, a league source told The Detroit News on Thursday, in exchange for James Wiseman, a 7-foot center who adds to the Pistons' bevy of big men.
