Detroit Pistons expected to hire Malik Rose as assistant GM

The Detroit Pistons are poised to add another piece to their front office shortly.

The team is expected to hire Malik Rose as assistant general manager, a source told M-Live.

Rose, 43, has been the general manager of the Erie BayHawks, Atlanta's G League affiliate, for the past year. He was named G League executive of year this season.

Yahoo Sports reported last week that he was in discussions with the Pistons. Marc Spears of ESPN reported that a deal was expected to be finalized.

Senior adviser Ed Stefanski is the Pistons de-facto general manager, in charge of basketball operations after signing a three-year contract last month.
