As an appetizer for the Detroit Pistons final preseason game, the Motor City Cruise announced that the team has acquired Chandler Vaudrin from the Cleveland Charge in exchange for Trayvon Palmer.
Vaudrin signed an Exhibit 10 deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers to join their preseason roster in 2021 before suffering a torn ACL in Summer League. Last year, he returned to Cleveland to spend the season with the Charge where he averaged 5.0 points per game (PPG), 4.0 rebounds per game (RPG), and 3.4 assists per game (APG) in 46 games played between the G League Showcase Cup and regular season.
